Raymond Dugan v. United States
IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, No. 22-4642 · judgment May 1, 2025
Questions presented
-
Did the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals construe the "Joint-Venture” doctrine too narrowly to comply with constitutional protections?
-
Should the procedure the Fourth Circuit Courts followed in evaluating probable cause to an affidavit for search, of information provided by a known foreign law enforcement agency, been applied at a higher standard to comply with the Fourth Amendment?
-
Did the Fourth Circuit frame Supreme Court precedents at too high a level of generality and fail to properly apply the reasoning of those holdings to their decisions?
-
Should the Supreme Court update the instructions of Gates and Leon to better contend with modern invasive technology, and the dubious expant ion of elusive supranational law enforcement it empowers?
