US Supreme Court rules on Fed, geofence warrants

The US Supreme Court issued two significant rulings. In one case, the Court restricted the use of geofence warrants, holding that individuals have a reasonable expectation of privacy in cell-phone location data, and that such warrants violate the Fourth Amendment unless based on probable cause. The 6-3 decision stemmed from a Virginia bank robbery investigation where police obtained location data from Google. In a separate ruling, the Court blocked President Trump from firing Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook, affirming the independence of the central bank. The ruling was a setback for the Trump administration's efforts to exert control over the Fed.
