New York v. Class (1986) (Constitutionality of automobile search)
Slip Opinion of the United States Supreme Court of a Notable Supreme Court Privacy Case Signed by Justice White Supreme Court of the United States. [White, Byron (1917-2002)]. New York v. Class. Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals of New York. [Washington, DC: Government Printing Office, 1986]. ii, 13, [1], 3, [1], 10, 2 pp. Octavo. Stapled wrappers. Signature of Justice White to head on cover page. Fine. $400. * This decision determined that police officers are allowed to search an automobile. Holding there is no reasonable expectation of privacy in an automobile, it reversed a conviction by the New York State Court of Appeals. Justice O'Connor wrote the opinion of the Court; Justice White filed a dissent, which was joined by Justice Stevens. A U.S. Supreme Court opinion is disseminated through a four-step process. The first is a bench opinion, which is issued on the day the Court announces a decision. A slip opinion, which often incorporates revisions, is issued a few days afterwards. With the addition of an index and other features, such as a table, an opinion is issued later as a softcover Preliminary Print designated as a Part. Over time, it is joined with other parts to make up a preliminary softcover United States Reports volume. A few years later, the opinion, after a final round of editing and indexing, is printed in its final, official, form in the hardcover United States Reports.
