You seem to be unaware, but just FYI, the strongest justice on this kind of privacy right and limited search and seizure is the one who just died, and the candidate being considered to replace him has a well deserved record of cozying up to law enforcement agencies - in particular in the way that the guy who just died found unconstitutional.

They do, they are also very cognizant of the ramifications if their motion is overturned. There is a constant calculus that goes on weighing the odds. It is very common to withdraw when that calculus indicates a possible loss.
