Preferred term

Indianapolis v. Edmond  

Definition

  • In the case of Indianapolis v. Edmond (2000), the Supreme Court restricted the power of suspicionless search, specifically with drug dogs. The court in the Edmond case rejected the argument that the severe nature of the problem justified warrantless and suspicionless stops and searches.
