What is the test for a probation officer to search a person on probation under a probation search?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from People v. Lopez, H043323 (Cal. App. 2018):

potential harm by probationers.' [Citation.] A condition of probation that enables a probation officer to supervise his or her charges effectively is, therefore, 'reasonably related to future criminality.' [Citations.]" (Olguin, supra, 45 Cal.4th at pp. 380-381.) Probation search conditions are intended " 'to deter the commission of crimes and to protect the public, and the effectiveness of the deterrent is enhanced by the potential for random searches.' " (People v. Ramos (2004) 34 Cal.4th 494, 506.)
