Arizona v. Gant

Here’s a very interesting case about search & seizure law. The question presented: is it OK for cops to search a lawfully parked car after they have the suspect in custody?

For further study, have a look at the Arizona Supreme Court Decision in this case. Read the decision in Thornton v. US, which is the most recent (2004) Supreme Court decision on the auto search incident to a lawful arrest issue. Other interesting articles on the case can be found here, here and here.
