This amendment requires law enforcement to obtain a search warrant signed by a judge before searching anything. The law enforcement officers would need to prove that the search is reasonable and necessary. Given the fourth amendment protects citizens privacy in their own homes, cars, bodies, and properties.

My last example would be when a law enforcement officer not being able to provide enough proof to convince the judge that it is necessary to conduct a search and seizure at a home. Since they don’t have enough proof this could further delay the investigation.
