What are the implications of our holding sustaining the booking search?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Dominguez, 201 Cal.App.3d 345, 247 Cal.Rptr. 81 (Cal. App. 1988):

2 In light of our holding sustaining the booking search, we have no occasion to consider the defendant's other contentions, including what vestiges of Fourth Amendment protections continue to adhere to the belongings of one in jail once the booking process is completed. (See Edwards, supra, 415 U.S. at p. 808 [39 L.Ed.2d at p. 778 & fn. 9]; People v. Superior Court (Gunn) (1980) 112 Cal.App.3d 970).
