Re: wallet
There may be legitimate circumstances to look in a wallet, so that a warrant is not required, but it's dependent on the totality of the circumstances of the entire transaction with the official.
Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
