Question presented
- Under the totality-of-the-circumstances test, may probable cause to search a home rest on inference stacking—a series of inferences built on other inferences—when the affidavit lacks a concrete, corroborated nexus to the place to be searched, or does the Fourth Amendment impose limits requiring quality over quantity in the probable-cause calculus?
