Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to protection against unreasonable searches and seizures?

First Amendment.

Fourth Amendment.

The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. This means that law enforcement must have a valid reason or warrant to search a person's property or person. This amendment also protects citizens from being searched or seized without probable cause or a specific reason for suspicion. Option A, the First Amendment, protects freedom of speech, religion, and press. Option C, the Sixth Amendment, guarantees the right to a speedy and public trial with an impartial jury. Option D, the Eighth Amendment, prohibits excessive bail, fines, and cruel and unusual punishment. These amendments, while important, do not specifically guarantee protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.
