Clancy (U. of Mississippi School of Law) presents a text intended to serve as an accessible and authoritative resource on the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution, which prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures and defines the requirements of warrants. He provides a comprehensive treatment of the development of US Supreme Court case law in order to provide students with context and understanding of current doctrine. He also selectively discusses lower court case law that illustrates and illuminates Fourth Amendment principles, is on issues undecided by the Supreme Court, or provides a different point of view. Chapters discuss the pre-Amendment development of search and seizure practices and the drafting of the Amendment; the right to be "secure;" objects protected by the amendment; when does a seizure occur; arrests, stops, and other seizures of persons; defining "search," search incident to arrest; protective weapons searches and sweeps; other categories of searches; the reasonableness of a search and seizure; warrant issuance, review, and execution; and the exclusionary rule and other remedies.
