Location information: warrants.

Abstract

Existing law authorizes a court or magistrate to issue a warrant for the search of a place and the seizure of property or things identified in the warrant where there is probable cause to believe that specified grounds exist. Existing law also provides for a warrant procedure for the acquisition of stored communications in the possession of a provider of electronic communication service or a remote computing service. This bill would prohibit a government entity, as defined, from obtaining the location information of an electronic device without a valid search warrant issued by a duly authorized magistrate unless certain exceptions apply, including in an emergency or when requested by the owner of the device. The bill would prohibit these provisions from creating a cause of action against any foreign or California corporation, its officers, employees, agents, or other persons, for providing location information. This bill would, with certain exceptions, prohibit the use of information obtained in violation of these provisions in a civil or administrative hearing.
