Motions to Suppress Due to Constitutional Violations

Defending Your Rights Against Unlawful Evidence

At ZRose Law PLLC, Zac is committed to defending your constitutional rights at every stage of the criminal process. If law enforcement officers violated your rights during an investigation, arrest, or interrogation, any evidence they gathered may be considered unlawful. Filing a Motion to Suppress Due to Constitutional Violations is a powerful tool Zac uses to challenge improperly obtained evidence and protect your freedom.


What is a Motion to Suppress Due to Constitutional Violations?

A Motion to Suppress Due to Constitutional Violations is a legal request to exclude evidence from your criminal case if it was obtained in violation of your constitutional rights. This motion can be filed if law enforcement officers violated your rights under the Fourth Amendment (protection against unreasonable searches and seizures), Fifth Amendment (protection against self-incrimination), or Sixth Amendment (right to legal counsel). If the court grants this motion, the evidence cannot be used against you at trial, which can significantly weaken the prosecution’s case.


Common Constitutional Violations in Criminal Cases

Zac meticulously reviews every aspect of your case to determine if your rights were violated. Some of the most common constitutional violations include:


  • Unlawful Searches and Seizures: If the police conducted a search without a valid warrant, probable cause, or your consent, the evidence they found may be inadmissible. The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches of your home, vehicle, or person.
  • Failure to Provide Miranda Warnings: If law enforcement failed to inform you of your right to remain silent and your right to an attorney (Miranda rights) before an interrogation, any statements you made may be suppressed.
  • Coerced Confessions: If your confession was obtained through coercion, intimidation, or threats, it violates your Fifth Amendment rights and can be excluded from evidence.
  • Violation of Right to Counsel: If you were denied access to your attorney during questioning or other critical stages of the investigation, this could be grounds for suppressing any resulting evidence under the Sixth Amendment.


How I Challenge Constitutional Violations

Zac takes a detailed and aggressive approach when filing Motions to Suppress Due to Constitutional Violations. His strategy includes:


  • Thorough Investigation: Zac carefully examines police reports, body camera footage, and witness statements to identify potential rights violations.
  • Challenging Police Conduct: He exposes unlawful police actions, such as conducting a search without a warrant or using excessive force during an arrest.
  • Exclusion of Illegally Obtained Evidence: If Zac can demonstrate that your rights were violated, the court may exclude evidence—such as illegally seized drugs, weapons, or improperly obtained confessions—severely weakening the prosecution’s case.


Why These Motions Are Critical to My Defense

"Suppressing evidence obtained through constitutional violations can drastically alter the course of your case. Without key evidence, the prosecution may be forced to reduce the charges or even dismiss the case entirely. Zac fights to protect your rights and ensure that any unlawful actions by law enforcement do not impact your future.
