Oliver v. United States, 466 U.S. 170 (1984).

• Courts have extended Fourth Amendment protection to

the curtilage; and they have defined the curtilage, as did the

common law, by reference to the factors that determine whether an
LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO
individual reasonably may expect that an area immediately adjacent

to the home will remain private.

• Curtilage is the area to which extends the intimate activity
LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO
associated with the 'sanctity of a man's home and the privacies of

life.’

• Conversely, the common law implies, as we reaffirm today, that no
LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO LLRMI - DEMO
expectation of privacy legitimately attaches to open fields.
