PA Supreme Court rules that state constitution grants more protection that the US 4th Amendment.
I’m actually surprised it has taken this long to see a ruling like this. Warrants are a lot easier to get now then back in the 1920’s when SCOTUS came up with the Carroll Doctrine. I wonder when other states will jump on the bandwagon. The really surprising thing is this didn’t come from the left coast.Police must have probable cause as well as “exigent circumstances” in order to legally search a vehicle without a warrant, a divided Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled Tuesday.
