Maris Leibman and Ezra David Hill v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided December 26, 1968 · Tuttle, Ainsworth, Mitchell
404 F.2d 348 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Maris Leibman and Ezra David Hill v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

..We have carefully considered the contention of appellant that the prosecution here arose out of the illegal finding of marijuana as the fruits of an unlawful search. We conclude that, under the undisputed circumstances of this case, including the conceded right of the motel operator to enter the room for housekeeping purposes, no Fourth Amendment rights of the appellants were invaded. The subsequent arrest, at a time the officers knew the appellants were in possession of the marijuana, was fully warranted.

The judgment is affirmed.
