  • Descrição: 'Fourth Amendment - Reasonable Expectation of Privacy'. - Over two decades ago, in 'O'Connor v. Ortega', the Supreme Court attempted to provide guidance on the scope of the Fourth Amendment's privacy protection for government employees in the workplace. Although the O'Connor Court ruled that public employees retain their Fourth Amendment rights, the Justices splintered regarding the proper standard for delineating those rights. Last Term, in 'City of Ontario v. Quon', the Supreme Court used O'Connor as guidance to hold - on the specific set of facts in the case - that a police chief did not violate the Fourth Amendment by auditing a SWAT team member's messages sent from a government-issued pager.4 Yet instead of clarifying whether a government employee enjoys a reasonable expectation of privacy when using government-issued equipment, the Court provided no helpful guidance for similar cases in the future, declining to decide whether the Fourth Amendment provides such a reasonable expectation in technological contexts. Although the Court would prefer to allow technological norms to develop before crafting rigid rules, its reluctance to devise an intelligible principle for Fourth Amendment rights regarding technology will have the negative effect of causing lower courts to rely on O'Connor to an even greater extent. Because the O'Connor test is flexible and fact-specific, judges will often be able to reach whatever conclusion they want. The Court should have ruled that public employees do not enjoy a reasonable expectation of privacy when sending text messages from government-issued devices.
