Pursuant to the Mandates of the Plain Text of the Constitution

question 16

Multiple Choice

Pursuant to the mandates of the plain text of the Constitution, the Supreme Court held in Katz v. United States (1967, p. 357) , that warrantless searches “are per se unreasonable under the Fourth Amendment subject only to a few specifically established and well-delineated exceptions.” Accordingly, warrants play a very important role in criminal procedure. It might therefore come as a surprise to many people that the majority of searches are conducted without a warrant under one of the recognized exceptions to the warrant requirement.
-Which of the following is not one of the exceptions to the warrant requirement?

• A)Searches incident to lawful arrest.
• B)Motor vehicle searches.
• C)Consent searches.
• D)Profile searches.
