Court Case

  • United States v. Houston (Amicus Brief)

    The Brennan Center filed an amicus brief to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in U.S. v. Houston on February 29, 2016, arguing that police must get a warrant to engage in long-term, covert video surveillance of a home. The Sixth Circuit had ruled that such surveillance does not qualify as a search under the Fourth Amendment, and the brief supports Mr. Houston’s request that the whole court rehear the case.
