I look forward to meeting you. For your first week’s assignment, read:

Due process and Incorporation
Dressler et al., 46-48 (Skim)
Introduction to the Exclusionary Rule
Dressler et al., 70-90; 510-512

Wednesday
Assignment 2
What is a search?—Katz: expectations of privacy
Dressler et al., 67–70, 91–100, 118–119

The page numbers refer to the assigned textbook: Joshua Dressler, George C. Thomas & Daniel S. Medwed, CRIMINAL PROCEDURE: INVESTIGATING CRIME, 7TH ED.
(Skim: Read in sufficient depth to understand the material, but no need to take extensive notes.)

Looking forward to a great semester,
Prof. Chien
