Answer 1

Answer:

c. She wouldn't have standing to do so

Explanation:

Barry’s wife challenged the legality of the admitted evidence showing that Lynette paid Barry. She claimed her bank account was private and the police had no right to look into it. She couldn't have the bank account evidence suppressed because she doesn’t have the standing to do so.

This is because though Banks have to protect personal and banking related information they are usually made available for Government agencies under special circumstances.
