  • Keep It claims "This case is a landmark case in the evolution of probable cause and search warrants". Is there evidence to the contrary? Chris the speller 06:53, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Even if you think notability should be required, any case that reaches a U.S. Circuit Court or higher is inherently notable, because it determines a legal precedent that in principle affects millions of people. —Simetrical (talk) 07:28, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
