Messerschmidt v. Millender

Summary

Justice Sotomayor, dissenting, argues that the police warrant was overly broad under the Fourth Amendment and that the officers were not entitled to qualified immunity for seeking gang-related evidence and all firearms when the underlying crime was not gang-related. She would affirm the Court of Appeals' judgment denying immunity. Justice Kagan, concurring in part and dissenting in part, would deny immunity for the gang search but grant it for the firearms search, while Justice Breyer, concurring, would affirm the Court's decision on firearms.
