Search and Seizure
MASSACHUSETTS DRUG CRIMES LAWYER
ILLEGAL SEARCH AND SEIZURE
Under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and Article 14 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights, your body, home, automobile, place of work, and your belongings are protected from unreasonable searches and seizures. No police officer, state trooper, federal agent or other law enforcement official is permitted to search you without a Court-issued search warrant unless they have probable cause to think that a crime is taking place. Defining probable cause is difficult and subject to interpretation on a case by case basis.
