Evidence rule

This page is public-interest research. An argument grade is not a court finding. A watchdog page describes the device. It is not proof a Nevada agency bought it or turned a feature on. A product description is not a Nevada practice. Agencies are not merged: the City of Las Vegas Department of Public Safety, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the Clark County School District, the City of Reno, and the Nevada Department of Public Safety stay separate. A hotlist hit is not a confirmed crime. Legal review of this page is unverified.

What it does

Electronic monitoring is a condition of release, probation, or parole that uses a device to report where a person is or whether they are home. The device is worn or installed because a court or a supervision agency ordered it. It is not a secret tracker on a person who has no case.

Privacy watchdog concerns

No watchdog page is attached.

Constitutional issues

Analogical constitutional argument

Fourth Amendment, Nevada Constitution art. 1, § 18

Warrant practice not established for a Nevada agency

Electronic monitoring: No Nevada electronic-monitoring inventory is in this build. Jones does not decide a court-ordered monitor. No violation is claimed.

  • United States v. Jones, 565 U.S. 400 (2012). Analogical constitutional argument. United States Supreme Court. Jones held that attaching a GPS device to a vehicle and using it was a search. A monitor ordered as a condition of release is a different legal posture, and the analogy is not the holding.

Statutes attached to read, not findings.

  • NRS Chapter 239. Nevada public-records law is the route to ask for contracts, policies, and logs. Citing it is not a finding that a surveillance practice is unlawful.
  • Nevada Constitution art. 1, § 18. State search-and-seizure provision. This page does not quote the section. No section anchor was verified. It is listed only where a search question is actually implicated.
  • 42 U.S.C. § 1983. A civil remedy for a deprivation of federal rights under color of state law. It is not a warrant statute, and it does not itself make a surveillance practice unlawful.
