A warrantless search or seizure is considered reasonable if it falls under established exceptions to the warrant requirement, such as exigent circumstances, consent, search incident to arrest, or the plain view doctrine. These exceptions allow law enforcement to act swiftly in situations where obtaining a warrant may not be feasible or where immediate action is necessary to prevent harm, destruction of evidence, or escape of a suspect. The reasonableness of such actions is evaluated based on the context and specific circumstances surrounding the search or seizure.
According to John Yoo, a warrantless search or seizure is reasonable if it is based on the President's inherent constitutional authority during times of war or national emergency. Yoo argued that the Fourth Amendment does not apply in these circumstances, allowing for warrantless actions in order to protect national security.

Conduct a warrantless search and seizure.
Search and seizure are two different things. A search is an intrusion into a reasonable expectation of privacy. A seizure is the taking or interference with custody or movement of a person or property. You can have a search without a seizure, and a seizure without a search. Either is unlawful if the search or seizure is not supported by the probable cause to believe that a crime has occurred, is about to occur, or is occurring, and the search or seizure will result in evidence of that crime. Probable cause is a reasonable belief, based on facts available to the person doing the searching and seizing, that criminal activity is taking place. With some exceptions, an officer can't conduct a search just because he wants to, or on pure speculation. There has to be some reasonable basis for the search.
The court allows the government to conduct a warrant-less search and seizure.
The scope of a valid warrantless vehicle search is not limitless. It is generally limited to areas within the immediate control or reach of the driver, where there is a reasonable belief that evidence of a crime may be found. Searches that go beyond these limitations may be considered unreasonable and violate the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.
OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) conducted a warrantless search of Barlow's business claimiing the authority to do so under its regulatory powers. Supreme Court ruled against OSHA in this circumstance but did NOT totally rule out all no-notification, warrantless, regulatory-type searches.See below link:
The court typically uses the "reasonable expectation of privacy" test to determine the legality of search and seizure. This test assesses whether an individual had a subjective expectation of privacy that society recognizes as reasonable in the context of the Fourth Amendment. If the expectation is deemed reasonable, any search or seizure conducted without a warrant or probable cause may be considered unconstitutional. Additionally, the "exclusionary rule" may apply, which prevents evidence obtained in violation of this standard from being used in court.
The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable search and seizure. However, there are many exceptions to the Fourth Amendment, some of which permit warrantless entry into a home.
Factors that determine whether a search is reasonable include obtaining a warrant from a judge, having probable cause to conduct the search, ensuring the search falls within the scope of the warrant, and conducting the search without violating constitutional rights such as the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure.
