Do GPS Tracking Devices Violate the Fourth Amendment?

Posted on June 7, 2011 by pogowasright.org

Law professor Laurie L. Levenson writes:

… Now it appears that the issue may be headed to the U.S. Supreme Court. On April 15, acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal petitioned the Supreme Court for review of U.S. v. Maynard, 615 F.3d 544 (D.C. Cir. 2010), petition sub nom, U.S. v. Jones, No. 1259 (April 15, 2011), a landmark decision striking down the warrantless use of GPS devices to conduct round-the-clock surveillance of suspects’ vehicles.

Read her summary of the history of judicial decisions and  analysis of cases that have led to this point in The National Law Journal.
