Which case addressed police evidence seizure rights?

  • Chimel v. California

  • Katz v. United States

Warden v. Hayden established that the Fourth Amendment does not prohibit the warrantless seizure of evidence that is in plain view of a police officer who has the right to be in the location from which the evidence can be plainly seen.
