What is the test for obtaining a search warrant from a telephone company?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Martino, 166 Cal.App.3d 777, 212 Cal.Rptr. 45 (Cal. App. 1985):
We note that at the time the police contacted the telephone company, the closest appellate case on point stated that a search warrant was not necessary in such circumstances since 'There is no reasonable expectation of privacy in name, address or telephone number as found in the records of the telephone[166 Cal.App.3d 787] company.' (People v. Elder (1976) 63 Cal.App.3d 731, 738 [134 Cal.Rptr. 212].)"
