750-1,000 words that addresses the following:

  • Explain the “plain-view” doctrine and the probable cause requirement with respect to this doctrine.
  • Explain how the adoption of the Henderson case would affect public policy.
  • If a policing agency disagrees with the Henderson case, are they required to follow the case or may they be allowed to provide more procedural safe guards as inferred in Arizona v. Hicks? Provide examples.
  • What happens if various interpretations of the “plain view” doctrine create significant differences between jurisdictions?
