High Court Splits on Search of Public Employee's Office.
Flygare, Thomas J.
Phi Delta Kappan, v68 n10 p792-94 Jun 1987
Presents divergent opinions of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (for the plurality), Justice Antonin Scalia, and Justice Harry Blackmun in the Supreme Court decision to return the case of "O'Connor v. Ortega" (questioning the constitutionality of searching a public employee's office) to the district court. O'Connor rejected the notion that public employers need a warrant for searching employees' offices. (MD)
