Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)
1. The Fourth Amendment provides protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, as a way to protect citizens from overzealous law enforcement officers and judges eager to secure criminal convictions. 2. Searches are unreasonable if they unduly interfere with a person's expectation of privacy, such as a police officer's use of evidence that was in plain view. 3. A police officer may search a vehicle if he/she has reasonable cause that would allow a warrant to have been issued if the officer had attempted to do so, because taking the time to seek a warrant would create the likelihood that the automobile would change location. 4. Under the Seventh Amendment, "all the charges against a defendant that grow out of a single criminal act, occurrence, episode, or transaction" must be tried at the same time. 5. Evidence that is obtained through a search that violated the rights of the accused cannot be used in trial.
