JUST IN: #SCOTUS declines to hear U.S. v. Hay, about warrantless, long-term "pole camera" surveillance of a suspect's home from its curtilage https://t.co/K4htVBOSyc
The U.S. Supreme Court is currently involved in two significant legal matters. In one case, the Court is seeking the government's views on a $1 billion music copyright dispute. In another ruling, the Court rejected an appeal from the tobacco industry, allowing a new federal rule to take effect that mandates graphic health warnings on cigarette packages. This decision indicates that the Court will not intervene in the requirement for these warnings, which the tobacco companies argue violate their free speech rights. Additionally, the Supreme Court declined to hear a case regarding warrantless, long-term surveillance using pole cameras, which involved monitoring a suspect's home.
