MI SB0114

Law enforcement officers cannot enter or search a residence without a valid search warrant if a resident expressly objects, except in exigent circumstances or as specified in subsection (3).

Objecting resident's refusal to consent applies even if another resident later consents to entry or search after the objecting resident is no longer physically present.

Evidence obtained in violation of the warrant requirement is inadmissible in criminal prosecutions against the objecting resident, but may be used to revoke parole/probation or impeach defendant testimony.

Exception allows warrantless search when a consenting resident is the alleged victim of a criminal act committed by the objecting resident and the officer's purpose is obtaining evidence of that crime.

The act takes effect 90 days after enactment.
