      "title": "An Overview of Supreme Court Search and Seizure Decisions from the October 1999 Term",
      "summary": "In the October 1999 Term, the Supreme Court placed limits on the extent to which intrusions\ninto reasonable privacy interests in a number of situations may withstand constitutional muster. \nDrawing upon  Terry v. Ohio , 392 U.S.  1 (1968), and its progeny, the Court in\n Florida v. J. L. , ___\nU.S. ___, 120 S.  Ct. 1375 (2000), held that a stop and frisk may not be justified by an\nanonymous tip, without more, that a person in a given location and wearing specific clothes was\ncarrying a gun. Such a tip merely provided identifying information about the subject, but lacked\nsufficient indicia of reliability as to the allegations of criminal activity. In  Illinois v.\nWardlow , ___\nU.S. ___, 120 S.  Ct. 673 (2000), the Court found that the headlong flight of a subject in\na high crime area upon seeing police was sufficient to support a stop and frisk. \n  In  Flippo v. West Virginia,  ___ U.S. ___, 120 S.  Ct. 7 (1999), the Court relied\n upon\n Mincey v. Arizona , 437 U.S.  385 (1978), in rejecting a \"homicide crime scene exception\"\nto the\nwarrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment. Finally, in  Bond v. United States , ___\nU.S. ___, 120\nS.  Ct.1462 (2000), the Court found that a bus passenger had a reasonable expectation of\nprivacy in regard to opaque carry-on luggage stored above the passenger's seat in an overhead\ncompartment. Physical manipulation of that luggage by a Border Patrol agent exceeded\nconstitutionally permissible grounds.",
