Defendant had standing to challenge the police entry into his aunt’s backyard. He used to live with her, but he moved out, and she let him keep his dogs in her back yard, and he came everyday with her permission to water and feed the dogs. The yard was fenced by a two wire fence on three sides and a neighbor’s privacy fence on the fourth. It was in her back yard. State v. Betts, 2013 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 705 (April 17, 2013).
Alaska requires a warrant for a two-party recording, not one party consent. A warrant that was shown to anticipate a drug deal was not overbroad because the police also learned about felon in possession of a firearm. Bearden v. State, 2013 Alas. App. LEXIS 44 (April 10, 2013).*
