United States v. Aquilar, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 64139 (D. Idaho May 7, 2012):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>At the time the GPS devices were used in this case, binding precedent in the Ninth Circuit established that the warrantless attachment of GPS devices did not violate the Fourth Amendment. See United States v. McIver, 186 F.3d 1119, 1126 (9th Cir. 1999). More recently, the Ninth Circuit held that placing a GPS tracker on a vehicle while the vehicle was parked in a private driveway did not constitute a search under the Fourth Amendment. See United States v. Pineda-Moreno, 591 F.3d 1212, 1215 (9th Cir. 2010), judgment vacated by Pineda-Moreno v. United States, 132 S.Ct. 1533, 182 L. Ed. 2d 151 (2012). The court in Pineda-Moreno further held that monitoring such tracking devices did not constitute an impermissible search under the Fourth Amendment. Id. at 1216-17. Thus, law enforcement officers, when they placed the GPS tracker on Mr. Aguilar&#8217;s car in October and November of 2011, were acting in objectively reasonable reliance on the binding appellate precedent provided by McIver and Pineda-Morales. Accordingly, the exclusionary rule will not be applied here because suppression of the evidence obtained would do nothing to deter police misconduct.
