Although you may believe that the police unlawfully searched your person, vehicle, or home, there are several legal exceptions that permit law enforcement to conduct a search without having first obtained a warrant. However, if the facts and circumstances of your case show that you may have been illegally searched, it may be possible to have any evidence found in that search excluded from your case. Excluding the state’s evidence can go a long way to securing a reduction or dismissal of your charge or obtaining an acquittal at trial.
