The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Andersson, 813 F.2d 1450 (9th Cir. 1987):
The Government argues that appellants do not have standing to challenge the search of Room 414 because they did not demonstrate either ownership or a reasonable expectation of privacy and thus did not meet their burden of proof under Rakas v. Illinois, 439 U.S. 128, 99 S.Ct. 421, 58 L.Ed.2d 387 (1978). Appellants argue that under United States v. Perez, 689 F.2d 1336 (9th Cir.1982), they have standing to challenge the search.
