The correct answer is: "The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution"

The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution was enacted as part of the US Bill of Rights. It protects US citizens against unreasonable searchs and seizures of their properties (performed by the authorities). For a search to be considered reasonabl', a warrant needs to be issued by a judge who appoints to the existence of a 'probable clause' to justify such action.
