Answer to Question 1

Great help.

Answer to Question 2

The Supreme Court has held that the warrantless entry of private premises by police officers is valid if based on the apparent authority doctrine. In other words, a warrantless entry of a residence is valid if it is based on the consent of a person whom the police reasonably believe
has authority to grant consent, even if their beliefs are ultimately erroneous (Illinois v. Rodriguez, 497 U.S. 177 1990). The test for reasonableness in this situation, according to the Court, is as follows: Would the facts available to the officer at the moment of the entry . . . warrant a man of reasonable caution in the belief that the consenting party had authority over the premises?
