Chimel v. California, 395 U.S. 752 (1969), was a 1969 United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that police officers arresting a person at home could not search the entire home without a search warrant, but police may search the area within immediate reach of the person without a warrant. The rule on searches incident to a lawful arrest within the home is now known as the Chimel Rule. Ronald M. George, the young Deputy Attorney General who unsuccessfully argued the State of California's position before the high court, ultimately became Chief Justice of the State of California.
