The police academies in CALIFORNIA has Learning Domain 16: Search and Seizure. This is probably arguably.....

Question

....the hardest learning domain in the academy. Well my question is what do you guys think are some of the main points, keys, principles, concepts and etc that a person should remember, understand, and learn about LD 16?

Answer 1

Search and seizure law is constantly changing because the fundamentals of it all is based on case law, not statutory law. You should mostly remember that the Fourth Amendment covers search and seizure. Know the definition of a search and the definition of a seizure. You should know warrant requirements and even more importantly the times for search warrants and arrest warrants. You want to know all of the exceptions to the warrant requirement (e.g. the automobile exception, plain view, plain smell, fresh pursuit, hot pursuit, exigency, all that stuff). You should also know the difference between, and the definitions of, reasonable suspicion and probably cause. Know the associated cases. For example, know what a Terry Stop is. This is also sometimes called a Stop and Frisk...or whatever they call it in the LD. Know the three levels of contact with a person...and what is required for each (i.e. Consent, Reasonable Suspicion Detention, and Arrest). If you review the practice questions at the back of the LD you should be fine.
