Apples and oranges. They can only do so after someone has failed to appear for a court hearing, and generally if bench warrant has been issued for their detainment and return. They are able to make exigent circumstances searches when they have reason to believe their target is in a location and likely to not be there when they return with law enforcement and a search warrant. They're also required to be licensed and post a bond in many states, and aren't allowed to operate in some other states; they are not controlled by federal law. In most states such arrests are only empowered after a bail contract has been entered into; i.e. I can't just arrest you because you're skipping out on an appearance, I have to have been your bail bondsman or contracted by him. Interesting counterexample, though. On Fri, Jul 26, 2002 at 10:25:59AM -0400, Daniel Golding wrote:
Private individuals are not necessarily bound by the 4th amendment. A good example are bail agents (i.e. Bounty hunters).

To follow up on the private responses "IV does not apply to companies". In the case of stolen copyright material being stored within the home; no one has the right to enter a home unless they are accompanied by a government official with a warrant. If my neighbor steals something from me I have no right to go into that person's house and take or destroy the stolen item. I am required by common and civil law to ask the local law enforcement agency to act on my behalf. That officer must abide by the constitution. A warrant must be issued. A judge must have due cause to issue the warrant. The Internet is no different than the sidewalk leading to my house. I do not need to have my door locked or have a fence to be protected *by the law* from trespassers. Note ... I suggest reading the caselaw sources for the 4th amendment. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&court=us&vol=116&invol=616#626 "By the laws of England, every invasion of private property, be it ever so minute, is a trespass. No man can set his foot upon my ground without my license, but he is liable to an action, though the damage be nothing, which is proved by every declaration in trespass where the defendant is called upon to answer for bruising the grass and even treading upon the soil. If he admits the fact, he is bound to show, by way of justification, that some positive law has justified or excused him. The justification is submitted to the judges, who are to look into the books, and see if such a justification can be maintained by the text of the statute law, or by the principles of the common law." --On Thursday, 25 July 2002 19:15 +0000 "Joseph T.

Indeed any law passed giving sanction to any party having the right IMHO is in direct violation of both the spiret and the letter of the Bill of Rights. Amendment IV The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. The dogs of stupidy have been unleashed. --On Wednesday, 24 July 2002 12:40 -0400 Marshall Eubanks<tme () multicasttech com> wrote:Thought this would be considered on-topic as guess who would have to clean up the resulting messes...
