PURSUANT TO A US SUPREME COURT DECISION WHICH CAME DOWN AFTER DEFENDANT’S CONVICTION, DEFENDANT HAS STANDING TO CHALLENGE THE CELL SITE LOCATION INFORMATION (CSLI) WARRANT, MATTER REMITTED (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department, reserving decision and remitting the matter, determined that, based upon a US Supreme Court decision which came down after defendant’s conviction, defendant has standing to challenge the cell site location information (CSLI) warrant:

We agree with defendant … that he has standing to challenge the CSLI search warrant. At the time of the court’s decision, controlling caselaw in this Department held that the acquisition of CSLI was not a search under the State or Federal Constitution because a defendant’s use of a phone “constituted a voluntary disclosure of his [or her] general location to [the] service provider, and a person does not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in information voluntarily disclosed to third parties” … . Following defendant’s conviction, the United States Supreme Court decided Carpenter v United States, 138 S Ct 2206, 2217 [2018]), which held that “an individual maintains a legitimate expectation of privacy in the record of his [or her] physical movements as captured through CSLI” … . As a result of the Carpenter decision, defendant is entitled to a determination on the merits regarding his challenges to the CSLI search warrant. People v Ozkaynak, 2022 NY Slip Op 01700, Fourth Dept 3-11-22

Practice Point: The US Supreme Court ruling that defendants have standing to challenge a cell site location information (CDLI) warrant came down after defendant’s conviction in this case. The matter was remitted for a determination of defendant’s suppression motion.
