Is an administrative inspection of a business premises, without a valid search warrant, considered reasonable and constitutional?
"New York", United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Velez, 109 Misc.2d 853, 441 N.Y.S.2d 176 (N.Y. City Ct. 1981):
Therefore, it would seem that an administrative inspection of a business premises, without a valid search warrant, would not be considered reasonable, and constitutional, under the Fourth Amendment, unless the search and seizure represents "responses to relatively unique circumstances". (Marshall v. Barlows, Inc., 436 U.S. 307, 313, 98 S.Ct. 1816, 1821, 56 L.Ed.2d 305).
