Definición

  • Although the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in The Appolon, 22 U.S. 361 (1824), awarding damages for an illegal seizure of a ship, did not specifically mention the Fourth Amendment, it illumined the doctrine of probable cause that the Court would later use in Fourth Amendment cases. The unanimous decision, authored by Justice Joseph Story, arose under admiralty law when a U.S. customs collector seized a ship, partly owned by French subjects and partly by a resident of Charleston, South Carolina, while it was anchored at Saint Joseph's in Spanish Florida after sailing from France to America.
