Answer to Question 1

The exigent circumstances exception to the warrant requirement is some kind of an
emergency that makes getting a search warrant impractical, useless, dangerous, or
unnecessary. The four general types of circumstances that are typically recognized
as being exigent circumstances are (1) danger of physical harm to the officer or
destruction of evidence, (2) searches in hot pursuit of dangerous suspects, (3) danger
to a third person, and (4) driving while intoxicated.

Answer to Question 2

Immediate control means the area from within which the defendant might gain
possession of a weapon or destructible evidence.
