The United States Supreme Court has accepted for review a state case and a federal case dealing with cell phone privacy. The question is whether the use of evidence taken from a cell phone incident to arrest violates the defendant’s Fourth Amendment rights. According to SCOTUSblog, they were not consolidated for review but likely will be heard one after the other, sometime in April. The cases are Riley v. California (the state case) and United States v. Wurie.
