Answer:

a) Chimel vs. California

Explanation:

The Chimel vs California case was a result of police officers going to Chimel's home with a warrant that authorized his arrest for burglary. After the warrant was served, the police officers comprehensively searched the house of Chimel. The search revealed various items that were used as exhibit to convict Chimel. The State Courts upheld Chimel's conviction. However the Supreme Court in a 6-2 decision, did not find the search of the full house reasonable, as a search warrant would be needed for this cause.
