Search Warrant for E-mails Upheld
In an opinion released today, the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals has held that that the federal District Court in Minnesota erred in suppressing e-mails seized by Yahoo! technicians from the company's California-based servers pursuant to a Minnesota state court warrant. The Appeals court held that the search was reasonable even though no police officers were present at the time the technicians executed the faxed warrant. The case is 11/18/02 USA v. Dale Robert Bach.
