Discuss the intricacies of search and seizures

What will be an ideal response?


Search is the examination of an individual's person, property, or other area in which they have a reasonable expectation of privacy by law enforcement. Often search and seizure are treated synonymously, but they are not interchangeable. Seizure is a government action that meaningfully interferes with an individual's possessory interests in that property. Seizure can be actual as being physically possessed or constructive possession which entails the person not actually touching the item to be seized. Typically seizures of person or property after a search, but there are exceptions. Probable cause is used as the standard justification for all government search and seizures.
