State v. M.A.

08-29-08 State v. M.A.
A-4922-06T4

Defendant stole over $650,000 from his employer. A
warrantless search of two workplace computers, conducted
pursuant to the employer's consent, revealed evidence confirming
the theft. Defendant appeals from the denial of his motion to
suppress evidence seized from the computers, contending that he
had a right to privacy in the personal information he stored in
the computers. We concluded defendant had no reasonable
expectation of privacy under the Fourth Amendment or the New
Jersey Constitution in the contents of the computers, including
the personal information.
