What is the test for a search of electronic storage devices in a search warrant?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Perron, C082869 (Cal. App. 2020):

On appeal, defendant challenges the electronics search condition, contending it is unreasonable under People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481 (Lent) because it is not reasonably related to future criminal conduct and it is unconstitutionally overbroad. He further contends the condition requiring him to provide passwords to access the electronic storage devices violates the Fifth Amendment.
