Warrantless Home Entries

This course focuses on the complexities of warrantless home entries. It covers crucial

Fourth Amendment aspects, emphasizing the significance of curtilage—the area

around a home treated as the home itself. The course explores exceptions allowing

warrantless entries, such as hot pursuit, imminent evidence destruction, preventing

escape, and emergency aid. Instructor Anthony Bandiero, a legal expert specializing

in search and seizure, guides officers on conducting these entries lawfully and

ethically. Understanding these concepts is vital for officers to uphold constitutional

rights while effectively carrying out their duties.
