E.D.Cal.: Garnishment of wages is not a 4A seizure

Garnishment of wages is not a Fourth Amendment seizure. Williams v. Drakaina Logistics, 2021 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 248750 (E.D.Cal. Dec. 30, 2021).

Defendant’s property was seized on exigency after an apparent crime, and seizure was required to prevent destruction. United States v. Bowles, 2022 U.S. App. LEXIS 82 (4th Cir. Jan. 3, 2022).*

Defendant likely did not have standing in a car that wasn’t his that he was driving but where he couldn’t show enough connection under Byrd. But that doesn’t matter because the plain view after the traffic stop was reasonable. United States v. Brooks, 2022 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 765 (E.D.Mich. Jan. 3, 2022).*
