Question Presented (from Petition)
(1) Whether the lower courts erred in allowing the Petitioner's cell phone to be searched just because he was on State parole from the State of Tennessee.
The U.S. Court of Appeals should have vacated and suppressed the fruits of the warrantless parole search of 317 Tillman Lane, because there was no reliability nor basis of knowledge for the anonymous tip that started this unconstitutional Fourth Amendment search.
