Collins v. Virginia, 138 S.Ct. 53 (decided September 28, 2011): granted cert on a case involving the automobile exception to the warrant requirement; the full Court later reversed the Virginia Supreme Court, 138 S.Ct. 1663 (why was this not in United States Reports?) (2018), holding that motorcycle involved in speeding incident which could be seen through the top of a partially enclosed driveway was in the "curtilage" of house and therefore warrant needed (I've already reported on this, see my comment from May 28)
