What is the test for a search and seizure?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Williams, E054765 (Cal. App. 2013):

conducted to protect the safety of police officers or others. It is narrowly confined to a cursory visual inspection of those places in which a person might be hiding.' [Citation.]" (People v. Werner (2012) 207 Cal.App.4th 1195, 1205.) Law enforcement officers must have a reasonable suspicion that the area to be swept harbors a dangerous person. (Ibid.) The totality of the circumstances must be analyzed to determine if the officer had a reasonable basis for his suspicion. (Id. at p. 1206.)
