Assignment:
1. How does a police officer decide whose consent to seek when searching a place where there are multiple owners, like a husband and wife, parent and child, or landlord and tenant? Do you share your home with someone else? Should that person be allowed to consent to a police search of your personal belongings?
2. Why is it important in the application of the plain view doctrine that a law enforcement officer be in a place where the officer has a right to be? Can an object be "immediately apparent" if an officer needs a mechanical aid, such as a flashlight, to see it?
