Can a search of a vehicle be justified under the automobile exception to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Vasey, 834 F.2d 782 (9th Cir. 1987):
2 This court requested supplemental briefing on whether the search of the vehicle could be justified under the automobile exception to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement. After reviewing the briefs and assessing counsels' oral arguments, we find that there was not probable cause for a magistrate to have issued a warrant and, therefore, the warrantless search could not be justified by the automobile exception. United States v. Ross, 456 U.S. 798, 102 S.Ct. 2157, 72 L.Ed.2d 572 (1982).
