Missouri v. Kruse

Certiorari Denied

Petition for certiorari denied on January 10, 2010.

Issue

Under the Fourth Amendment, is it reasonable for police officers to make a limited entry onto an individual's curtilage for the purposes of covering the rear exit of the home, while other officers conduct a "knock and talk" at the front door to investigate their probable-cause belief that the subject of an active arrest warrant is inside the home?
