Martin v. United States, No. 06-CM-1001, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA COURT OF APPEALS, July 10, 2008, Decided
View this case - free

Overview: A trial court erred in ruling that no search of defendant's house took place when it denied his motion to suppress a firearm that police recovered from his house because the Fourth Amendment was implicated as soon as the police entered the home. Defendant's unequivocal refusal to consent to a search was a clear invocation of his right to privacy.
