Supreme Court of New Jersey
State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Appellant v. Keith R. Domicz, Defendant-Respondent
September 20, 2006188 N.J. 285
Summary
The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division, reinstated the conviction, and held that the warrantless thermal scan and the grand‑jury subpoena for utility records did not constitute unlawful conduct that taints the consent search, that police need not have reasonable and articulable suspicion before seeking consent to search a home, and that polygraph evidence is inadmissible without a stipulation. Justice Wallace, dissenting in part and concurring in part, argued that the court should require such suspicion.
