Which amendment requires that warrants must be particular about places to be searched?

What will be an ideal response?


The Fourth Amendment forbids "unreasonable" searches and seizures by law enforcement officers and requires the existence of "probable cause" before arrest or search warrants may be issued. Warrants are required to describe the subject of their search with "particularity." The Supreme Court has determined that search and arrest warrants are not always required, however. The reasonableness clause allows the police to conduct a search or make an arrest so long as it is reasonable to do so.
