Definition(s)

  • Almost all the scholarly discussion of the Fourth Amendment centers on its application to state and federal employees. This stems from the fact that the provisions of the amendment, like other provisions within the Bill of Rights, are directed to governmental (state) actors rather than to private actors. [Source: Encyclopedia of the Fourth Amendment; Privately Employed Police and Security Forces]
