Actually, there are more like 6 exceptions to the warrant requirement. They are: (1)stop and frisk situation--also known as a terry stop (2)when the police have the consent of the individual or someone who also lives in the house (3)when the search involves an automobile (4)when the illegal item is in plain view and the police are on the property pursuant to a proper search warrant (5)when the search is incident to an arrest (6)and when there is an emergency type situation such as in hot pursuit of a suspect or there is the fear that the individual may destroy evidence before a search warrant can be obtained.
