NY1: Pawnbrokers have been heavily regulated for a century; rules for information storage are reasonable

Pawnbrokers have been a heavily regulated industry for over a century. NYC’s requirement of provision of certain information in digital format is reasonable under the Fourth Amendment (compare California Bankers Assn. v. Schultz) and the limited administrative searches are reasonable. Granted, the New York Constitution provides greater protection than the Fourth Amendment, but the regulations and statute are reasonable. Collateral Loanbrokers Assn. of N.Y., Inc. v. City of New York, 2017 NY Slip Op 00953, 2017 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 949 (1st Dept. Feb. 7, 2017).

Defendant’s home search probation condition was reasonable and served an important state interest. State v. Scott, 283 Ore. App. 566, 2017 Ore. App. LEXIS 113 (Feb. 1, 2017).*
