4th Amendment

The Fourth Amendment is a part of the United States Constitution that protects individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government. It was adopted in 1791 as part of the Bill of Rights, which includes the first ten amendments to the Constitution.

The Fourth Amendment requires that government officials obtain a warrant based on probable cause before conducting a search or seizure of an individual's property, including their person, house, papers, and effects. This protection applies to all individuals, including citizens, immigrants, and non-citizens, and is designed to prevent arbitrary and abusive government actions.

The Fourth Amendment is an essential safeguard for personal privacy and is a crucial protection for individual liberties and rights.
