Mark A. Witaschek v. District of Columbia
FourthAmendment CriminalProcedure Privacy
1. Whether the Fourth Amendment's third-party doctrine should be overruled, limited, or held inapplicable when the government collects massive digitally recorded data revealing a detailed mosaic of an individual's private life without satisfying any threshold of suspicion or vetting by a neutral magistrate consistent with Carpenter v. United States, 138 S.Ct. 2206 (2018).
2. Whether the District of Columbia Court of Appeals erred in upholding the denial of Petitioner's motion to suppress by concluding that criminal investigators of the Office of Tax and Revenue held an objectively reasonable, good faith belief in the constitutionality of twenty-six (26) suspicionless administrative summonses used to gather 4,000 predominantly irrelevant documents providing a detailed mosaic of Petitioner's personal life over a period of seven years.
