LAW 534 Study Guide - Final Guide: Plain View Doctrine, Vale Limited, Strict Liability
Document Summary
Carefully read passage at 11-10: compliance audits do not require warrants. In circumstances where the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that an offence has been committed, a warrant must be obtained. Therefore if offence committed then an audit would only be done as evidence and therefore a warrant is required. Warrant not needed when it is in plain view - plain view doctrine. Once there is a belief that an offence is being committed then audit must stopped and a warrant must be obtained. Particularly with respect to the ieb officer actions and testimony. Although court discussed difference between compliance and criminal law searches not much guidance (more guidance in r. v. jarvis later ) Entrapment - the state of being caught in or as in a trap. This would not be unconstitutional since these things are regulated and what they are checking is illegal. As discussed above in beginning of chapter.
