Answer:

4th Amendment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 4th Amendment states that, if there is no consent, neither is their a warrant issued by the court, then there should be no legal search, and that if a search had already been conducted, all evidence found within that search is voided for the case at hand. However, it is important to note that if the person is charged with some other crime, then these evidence may be brought up.
