Does a judge have authority to order a search of a probationer's home on reasonable grounds?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from In re D.C., 10 Cal. Daily Op. Serv. 12, 473, 115 Cal.Rptr.3d 837, 188 Cal.App.4th 978 (Cal. App. 2010):

3 The United States Supreme Court has recognized the importance of such parental authority. In Griffin v. Wisconsin (1987) 483 U.S. 868, 107 S.Ct. 3164, 97 L.Ed.2d 709, in which the court upheld a statute authorizing a warrantless search of a probationer's residence upon " 'reasonable grounds,' " the court noted that, by analogy, "one might contemplate how parental custodial authority would be impaired by requiring judicial approval for search of a minor child's room." ( Id. at p. 876, 107 S.Ct. 3164.)
