- Restrictions on "Trap and Trace" come from a law which does not
- guarantee privacy under the 9th Amendment, but rather a law relying
- upon the 4th Amendment, which promises freedom from unreasonable
- search and seizure. (At least I hope it's the 4th one -- I am not a
- lawyer.)

- writes search warrants over phone tap orders. This decision may
- recognize that Texas law enforcement authorities would probably get
