It depends on the state you're in. Most states and the feds would accept the parents' permission to search in lieu of a warrant, since most states do not allow minors to hold title to property.

Do police need a search warrant in Canada?

In the general context of the question, the answer is yes, however consult a Lawyer for specifics to your case. Basically, what makes a search legal in Canada is the existence of Probable Cause to believe either that a crime is in progress or that the search will turn up evidence pertinent to an investigation. There are occasions when probable cause can be deemed to exist, allowing a police officer to search a person, item or premises without a warrant, and there are occasions when an officer requires either consent or a warrant to search. Examples where police do not require a search warrant: -The police are looking for a missing woman and knock on your door as part of a neighborhood canvass. Visible over your shoulder, lying on the floor, is a woman. -During a traffic stop, a strong odor of marijuana is wafting from your car -A fleeing suspect runs into a home -There is an immediate danger to life or property if they are not permitted to conduct the search (such as a house on fire). Notes: -Unrelated evidence turned up while conducting a legal search is admissible. For example, if the police enter that home on fire looking for victims and find your grow-op, that evidence is admissible. -A mere refusal to consent to a search cannot be used to help establish probable cause. For example, if a police officer asks you to if he may look in your trunk, saying "no" does not, as a matter of law, give him probable cause to suspect you're hiding something. Without other grounds, he cannot search the trunk.


Can police search a person without a warrant?

It depends on the circumstance. A police officer cannot randomly search a person for no reason; however, there are many situations in which an officer can search without a warrant. Among those is probable cause and exigent (or emergency) circumstances. An officer, also, has the ability to do an outer-clothing patdown if they have reasonable suspicion that an individual is armed (Terry v. Ohio, Terry Stop, or Stop and Frisk). An officer, also, has the ability to conduct a search of the suspect after an arrest has been made (Search Incident to Lawful Arrest).
