Name: U.S. v. Furrow
Court: US Court of Appeals
District 9 Cir
Opinion Date: 10/12/2000
Subsequent History: None
Summary

The next issue concerned whether the defendant’s son, who appeared at the doorstep after the sweep, voluntarily consented to the officer’s next search of the cabin. The appellate court remanded this question for further proceedings, as the evidence did not show whether the minor had seen the previous search. If he had witnessed the previous search, then his consent was tainted.
