Questions: A plain view arrest may be made without a warrant. (A) True (B) False

The answer is (A) True: a plain view arrest may be made without a warrant.

Explanation:

• The "plain view" doctrine is a legal principle that allows law enforcement officers to seize evidence and make arrests without a warrant if the evidence is in plain sight. This doctrine is based on the idea that if an officer is lawfully present in a location and sees contraband or evidence of a crime in plain view, they can take action without needing a warrant.
• For example, if a police officer legally enters a home with the homeowner's consent and sees illegal drugs on a table, the officer can seize the drugs and arrest the individual without obtaining a warrant.
• The key conditions for the plain view doctrine to apply are that the officer must be lawfully present at the location where the evidence is in plain view, and it must be immediately apparent that the items are evidence of a crime or contraband.

Therefore, the correct answer is (A) True.
