United States v. King, No. 11-10182 (9th Cir. 2012)
Annotate this CaseDefendant appealed his conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm. He challenged the district court's denial of his motion to suppress evidence obtained during a warrantless probation search of his room. The court held that, although the police did not have reasonable suspicion to search defendant's room, they needed no such suspicion because defendant was subject to suspicionless search as condition of his probation. Under United States v. Baker, such searches did not violate the Fourth Amendment. Accordingly, the district court properly denied defendant's motion to suppress.
