Administrative Searches - Part II From Frank to the Patriot Act More Information on Administrative Searches

2 U.S. v. Biswell, 406 U.S. 311 (1972) Federally licensed gun dealer Police officer and federal treasury agent show up and ask to see the books and the storeroom Owner consents and they find an illegal weapon Owner is prosecuted and attacks the search as not having even an area warrant

3 Pervasively Regulated Industries When a dealer chooses to engage in this pervasively regulated business and to accept a federal license, he does so with the knowledge that his business records, firearms, and ammunition will be subject to effective inspection. Each licensee is annually furnished with a revised compilation of ordinances that describe his obligations and define the inspector's authority. The dealer is not left to wonder about the purposes of the inspector or the limits of his task. (Biswell)

4 Marshall v. Barlow's, 98 S. Ct. 1816, 436 U.S. 307 (1978) OSHA conducts searches of OSHA regulated businesses to assure compliance with worker health and safety laws Employer refused entry to an OSHA inspector who did not have a warrant to inspect the business United States Supreme Court found that merely being subject to Interstate Commerce Clause regulation does not make a business pervasively regulated OSHA inspector must get an area warrant if refused entry. No probable cause is necessary Congress could probably give OSHA the authority

5 New York v. Burger, 482 U.S. 691 (1987) Search of junk yard for stolen goods Lower court excluded the evidence in the criminal trial: "the fundamental defect [of 415-a5]... is that [it] authorize[s] searches undertaken solely to uncover evidence of criminality and not to enforce a comprehensive regulatory scheme. The asserted 'administrative schem[e]' here [is], in reality, designed simply to give the police an expedient means of enforcing penal sanctions for possession of stolen property."

6 Does the History of the Regulations Matter? Firearms and alcohol have always been regulated We pointed out that the doctrine is essentially defined by "the pervasiveness and regularity of the federal regulation" and the effect of such regulation upon an owner's expectation of privacy. See id., at 600, 606. We observed, however, that "the duration of a particular regulatory scheme" would remain an "important factor" in deciding whether a warrantless inspection pursuant to the scheme is permissible. (United States Supreme Court in Burger)

7 Alternative Standard...where the privacy interests of the owner are weakened and the government interests in regulating particular businesses are concomitantly heightened, a warrantless inspection of commercial premises may well be reasonable within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment. (Burger)

Criteria for Searches of Regulated Industries

9 Substantial Government Interests First, there must be a "substantial" government interest that informs the regulatory scheme pursuant to which the inspection is made. ("substantial federal interest in improving the health and safety conditions in the Nation's underground and surface mines"); (regulation of firearms is "of central importance to federal efforts to prevent violent crime and to assist the States in regulating the firearms traffic within their borders"); (federal interest "in protecting the revenue against various types of fraud").

10 "Necessary to further [the] regulatory scheme." For example, in Dewey we recognized that forcing mine inspectors to obtain a warrant before every inspection might alert mine owners or operators to the impending inspection, thereby frustrating the purposes of the Mine Safety and Health Act -- to detect and thus to deter safety and health violations.

11 Must be a constitutionally adequate substitute for a warrant In other words, the regulatory statute must perform the two basic functions of a warrant: it must advise the owner of the commercial premises that the search is being made pursuant to the law and has a properly defined scope, and it must limit the discretion of the inspecting officers.

12 What is necessary to substitute for a warrant? To perform this first function, the statute must be "sufficiently comprehensive and defined that the owner of commercial property cannot help but be aware that his property will be subject to periodic inspections undertaken for specific purposes." In addition, in defining how a statute limits the discretion of the inspectors, we have observed that it must be "carefully limited in time, place, and scope."

How Do These Apply to Burger?

14 One First, the State has a substantial interest in regulating the vehicle-dismantling and automobile-junkyard industry because motor vehicle theft has increased in the State and because the problem of theft is associated with this industry.

15 Two Second, regulation of the vehicle-dismantling industry reasonably serves the State's substantial interest in eradicating automobile theft. It is well established that the theft problem can be addressed effectively by controlling the receiver of, or market in, stolen property.

16 Three Finally, the "time, place, and scope" of the inspection is limited The officers are allowed to conduct an inspection only "during [the] regular and usual business hours." The inspections can be made only of vehicle-dismantling and related industries. And the permissible scope of these searches is narrowly defined: the inspectors may examine the records, as well as "any vehicles or parts of vehicles which are subject to the record keeping requirements of this section and which are on the premises."

17 Licenses and Permits Restaurant license, elevator license, shellfish processing license Issued on set criteria established through stature or regulation Can require consent to searches as a condition of licensure Restaurant licenses - any time during regular business hours

18 Are these pervasively regulated industries? Substantial Government Interests? Necessary to further the regulatory scheme? Must be a constitutionally adequate substitute for a warrant?

19 Does the Exclusionary Rule Apply? - Trinity Industries v. OSHA, 16 F.3d 1455 (6th Cir. 1994) OSHA used an employee complaint as the basis for a probable cause warrant for a specific inspection, as provided in the OSHA Act. Inspector also did a general search, claiming it was part of an area warrant type search Court found that a complaint driven search does not meet the neutral selection criteria for an area warrant Court allowed the use of the improperly obtained records for administrative actions to correct risks, but not as a basis for punishing (fining) the employer

20 What about Evidence of Unrelated Crime? What if the housing inspector finds your stash of stolen DVD players? What if the restaurant inspector finds the cook's stash of cocaine? What did Camara say? Finally, because the inspections are neither personal in nature nor aimed at the discovery of evidence of crime, they involve a relatively limited invasion of the urban citizen's privacy.

21 Administrative Searches and Terrorism How would administrative search authority change the way searches are done for terrorist activities? What is the constitutional justification for such searches, under the See and Camara rulings? What implications would such searches have for later criminal prosecutions?
