Re: I Need to Know My Legal Rights
I would recommend that you ask this question under criminal law. Criminal defense lawyers might provide you with a more thorough explanation on what to do when a police officer demands to enter your home without a warrant.
Re: i need to know what my legal rights are
Generally speaking, police cannot enter your home without a warrant, or you letting them. If no children are left in the home, and there is no probable cause to think a felony is in progress, they cannot come in.
My question is why would a police officer waste his time coming to your home? I think there is more to the story here.
