Edit: it seems it is divided and cases have gone both ways in regards to expectation of privacy in apartment buildings: https://illinoislawreview.org/print/vol-2018-no-3/fourth-amendment-protections-in-common-areas-of-apartment-buildings/ https://illinoislawreview.org/print/vol-2018-no-3/fourth-ame...

Do you have case law citations for that?

  It looks like it is quite divided and could go either way at least wrt apartment buildings: https://illinoislawreview.org/print/vol-2018-no-3/fourth-amendment-protections-in-common-areas-of-apartment-buildings/ https://illinoislawreview.org/print/vol-2018-no-3/fourth-ame...

There’s more here: http://www.wisconsinappeals.net/on-point-by-the-wisconsin-state-public-defender/expectation-of-privacy-multi-unit-common-area-basement/ http://www.wisconsinappeals.net/on-point-by-the-wisconsin-st... > Because the state offered credible testimony — specifically believed by the trial court — that third parties had unfettered access to the basement of this four-unit building, the defendant did not have a subjective expectation of privacy GP suggested this wouldn’t be allowed in the hallway of an access-controlled building and precedent suggests that’s accurate. The key is whether a random person could wander into the area without encountering something analogous to a locked door. If the door to the apartment block wasn’t locked (i.e. Joe Public could wander in and right up to your door), however, then when in the hallway a person would have no more expectation of privacy than when in the street.
