On Tuesday, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in a case that could have far-reaching implications on law enforcement’s ability to access digital records. In US v. Microsoft, the tech giant is challenging a US search warrant involving data stored in servers located in Ireland. The case poses major questions over data access in the Internet age. The case hinges on the Stored Communications Act, which was passed in 1986, long before the explosion of emails and the Internet.

Michael Whitener of VLP Law Group discusses the implications of the case.
