An interesting decision from the Seventh Circuit
Howard Bashman reports that a three-judge panel of the Seventh Circuit–with my judge (Manion) and Judge Sykes in the majority and Judge Rovner in dissent–issued an opinion today holding that under the Supreme Court’s decision in Georgia v. Randolph a husband’s objection to the search of his premises did not preclude a valid search, conducted solely on the wife’s consent, once the husband had been validly arrested and removed from the dwelling.
