This appears to be a rather convoluted ruling...but what the hell...I live here..I should be used to it by now.

A judge found Domicz invited the detectives in out of the rain and eventually signed a form giving them permission to search his house.Well duh.

This would be the same Kangaroo Court that said that the 'RATS and only the 'RATS can replace candidates after filing deadlines at will. I'm not the least bit surprised, and won't exactly be shocked (but I will be shocked, SHOCKED) when they do the same thing to the cars.

The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled 4-3 yesterday that police do not need a reason to ask permission to search someone's home.The police need a warrant before they can enter the premises. If you invite them inside, all bets are off. When a police officer asks if they can step inside my home, I politely decline and step outside to speak with them.

I was pulled over two days ago in Tennessee for speeding. The officer gave me my ticket (after a long delay) and asked if I had any weapons or drugs in the vehicle. I said no. He asked if it were okay if he searched. I said no. He then insisted on having his dog walk around the outside of the vehicle, after which he said that something was indeed found and another unit was on the way to assist him.
He ordered me out of the car, searched me, and proceeded to search the vehicle. This took him about 30 minutes. Upon finding nothing he said I was free to go.
I was irate. I pulled over for the smug bastard for speeding. I cooperated with him and was very pleasant. Yet he insisted on searching my vehicle for drugs and kept me on the side of the highway for more than an hour. When he was finished I commented that he may need to have his dog checked. He smirked and drove off. I suspect his dog "found something" in order to justify a further search.

I hate to say this (don’s asbestos underwear) but I agree with the court on this.
They should be able to ASK (politely).
May we search your house, pretty please with cream and sugar on it?
You should be able to ask for anything (this is a free country) for example:
Q. can I have all of your money please?
A. No, get away from me!
See asking is not the problem, demanding, not asking but just doing, those I have a problem with.

I live here too, in the People's Republic of Zoo Jersey . The corruption in this state is worst in the country . The police act like the Gestapo. The actions of law enforcement in New Jersey have given me a bad taste and a total lack of respect for the job they do. BTW, they don't PROTECT you from harm, they only TRY to find out who harmed you.

It's worth stressing that the police still needs to ask permission unless they have a warrant.
All in all, this decision actually makes sense, unlike most other decisions by our crazy supreme court.

The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled 4-3 yesterday that police do not need a reason to ask permission to search someone's home.
"The Constitution protects against unreasonable searches and seizures and against coerced waivers of constitutional rights," Albin wrote. "It does not disallow voluntary cooperation with the police." >>>
I guess if you're a criminal and are dumb enough to sign a waiver for the cops to come in and search, then you should get arrested.

The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled 4-3 yesterday that police do not need a reason to ask permission to search someone's home. So warrants go out the window? I don't think so.

The Constitution says they need a warrant. Anything less than that is unacceptable.

A total stranger recently showed up at my house, after dark, beligerently demanding to be let in my backyard, where he claimed I was hiding his recently stolen four wheeler. I Called 9/11 ( he did too!), cops came in a couple minutes and suggested I let them have a look in the backyard to settle things.
I said OK, the cop told the guy to wait out front, he and I walked in the yard which was of course empty. The cop was nice enough, apologized and gave the guy a lecture. The guy apologized too.
Don't know if I handled it right, but it worked out OK.
