If a cop knocks on my door, do I have to let him/her in?
No. Unless the law enforcement agent has a warrant signed by a judge, you have every right to deny entry into your residence. Do not consent to any unwarranted searches of your home, person or vehicle!
Do I have to talk to the police?
No. You do not have to answer any questions beyond your name and basic contact information. You should never talk to police, even if you are innocent. Any mis-statement you make will be used against you to show you are lying. Tell the police you will not talk without an attorney and they must stop questioning you.
Is it okay for a police officer to search me?
Sometimes. Generally, if an officer has a warrant, if you consent, if you are arrested or if they believe you may be armed they will be allowed to search you, and maybe even the area around you. Specific facts in each case must be thoroughly reviewed to make sure your rights have not been violated.
