Plaintiff’s attached garage is part of the curtilage of the house. Coffin v. Brandau, 2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 64952 (M.D. Fla. July 31, 2008):<\/p>\n
The Coffins’ garage is attached to the house itself, and it holds their cars, motorcycles, and other household items that are typically kept in a garage. Unless the garage door is up, no passersby can see into the garage. Under the rationale of Dunn, the Coffins treated the garage as part of their home, and certainly its location and construction as an attachment to the house with an interior door into the kitchen could not be considered anything other than part of the dwelling unit. For all intents and purposes, the Coffins’ garage is unequivocally part of their dwelling unit with the expectation of privacy afforded one’s home.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
