Ed. 2d 56; 2006 U.S. LEXIS 4677; 74 U.S.L.W. 4311; 19 Fla. L. Weekly Fed. S 244 January 9, 2006, Argued June 15, 2006, Decided PRIOR HISTORY: ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS OF MICHIGAN. Detroit police executing a search warrant for narcotics and weapons entered petitioner Hudson's home in violation of the Fourth Amendment's "knock-and-announce" rule.

Affirming, the State Court of Appeals rejected Hudson's renewed Fourth Amendment claim. Held: The judgment is affirmed. [The] violation of the "knock-and-announce" rule does not require suppression of evidence found in a search. Opinion by: SCALIA
