Best Answer

We need more information to give you an accurate answer. In general, being convicted of a felony does not give law enforcement blanket rights to conduct warrantless searches.

Additional: The above is generally a true statement. However, if you are released on parole from prison and are under the supervision of a parole officer, they could possess the authority to conduct a search (without a warrant) of your living quarters to ensure that you are complying with the provisions of your parole.

Can cops search your house without a warrant?

Under most circumstances, no. The police usually need a warrant to search your house, car, property, etc. However, there are some cases in which the rule can be bent. If you are being arrested, the police may search you and your property for weapons or other accomplices for their own safety. If the police already have permission to be on your property, and they see some form of evidence that is clearly visible, they have the right to lawfully seize it. If the person who is in control of the property gives consent to the police, they may search it.
