Read this summary of the Katz v. United States Supreme Court case.In 1965, a man named Charles Katz was suspected of sending gambling information over the phone to clients in other states, which is against federal law. Without obtaining a warrant, the FBI put a recording device on the public telephone booth Katz used. The recorded evidence led to his conviction. However, Katz challenged it on the grounds of the Fourth Amendment’s protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Supreme Court ruled in Katz’s favor.
