Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit July 18, 2007, 06-30047 (United States v. Diaz-Castaneda)

FISHER, Circuit Judge:

We are presented with a question this court has not yet resolved: Does a license plate check by a law enforcement officer that reveals information about a person’s car ownership, driver status and criminal record constitute a search under the Fourth Amendment? We agree with all the other courts that have considered the issue that it does not.
