The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear a case brought by an Army veteran in Kansas who was convicted of stealing government property by fraudulently receiving disability benefits.

Civil liberties advocates have been trying for years to get a precedent-setting ruling that would require police to obtain a warrant before subjecting people to prolonged video surveillance of their homes by so-called pole cameras.

The need for such protections is growing more urgent, ACLU and legal scholars say.

The Supreme Court hasnât decided a significant Fourth Amendment search case since 2018âs Carpenter v. United States .

Legal scholars say police pole cameras present similar problems and an eventual decision could be guided by Carpenter ’s precedent.

The current technology allows for significantly more effective and intrusive surveillance than police or a nosy neighbor could achieve on their own.
