Live webinar presented by Michael Price, Litigation Director for the Fourth Amendment Center at NACDL

Searches and seizures of digital data are now routine in criminal investigations, but the role of the Fourth Amendment in the digital world is far from settled. This training will cover potential challenges to the constitutionality of device searches and online account searches, including overbreadth and lack of particularity, as well as compelled decryption and requesting the return of devices. A walk-through of the software commonly used by forensic investigators will be included as we discuss ways to either limit the scope of digital searches and seizures or suppress the results.

Registration:

This program is part of the 2022 IDS Forensic Science Education Series. The webinars will be presented monthly and are free to attend.
