What is the test for "reasonableness" in the context of the Fourth Amendment?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Sandoval, H034542 (Cal. App. 2011):
"[T]he ultimate touchstone of the Fourth Amendment is 'reasonableness.' " (Brigham City v. Stuart (2006) 547 U.S. 398, 403.) Here, the police acted reasonably in demanding that defendant come out of the room to speak with them, rather than conducting their investigation of the car burglary by way of a shouting match through a closed door.
