I hope it is appealed the the SC and is reversed.

It is odd that the only triggering reason to search is to determine your phone number and verify your name.  That certainly can be done without access the phone, so where is the reasonable cause?

It's a slipperly slope to allowing this and next to searching a car and then who knows what next.

(still not a lawyer)

without a warrant only to obtain its number.

    Whether the police can search anything beside the number the court left for another day.

I don't keep numbers on it.  I only have a number on there when I'm setting a meeting...  I delete before I leave her.  (PITA, means I must look at the ad to get her number...     But if the phone falls into wrong hands, it limits the damage.   If LE has probable cause...  they don't need my phone.  If LE doesn't have probable cause, I doubt they are going to get a subpeana for a misdemeanor bust.  If I left a body in the room, all bets are off & mt @ss is grass.  

I do not carry my real phone to meetings.
