vi. Stop and Frisk Situation
Malacat: Where a police officer observes unusual conduct which leads him reasonably to conclude in light of his experience that criminal activity may be afoot and that the person with whom he is dealing may be armed and that the person with whom he is dealing may be armed and presently dangerous, where in the course of investigation of this behavior he identifies himself as a policeman and makes reasonable inquiries, and where nothing in the initial stages of the encounter serves to dispel his reasonable fear for his own or others safety, he is entitled for the protection of himself and others in the area to conduct a carefully limited search of the outer clothing of such person in an attempt to discover weapons which might be used to assault him.
Malacat (1997): Probable cause is not required. However, mere suspicion or a hunch is not enough. Rather, a genuine reason must exist, in light of the police officers experience and surrounding conditions, to warrant the belief that the person detained has weapons concealed about him.

*Drug, Alcohol and Blood Tests
Requisites to be valid:
1. It must be random, and
2. It must be suspicionless.
Laserna v. DDB, GR 158633, Nov. 3, 2008: The constitutional validity of the mandatory, random, and suspicionless drug testing for students emanates primarily from the waiver of their right to privacy when they seek entry to the school, and from their voluntary submitting their persons to the parental authority of school authorities.
In case of private and public employees, the constitutional soundness of the mandatory, random and suspicious drug testing proceeds from the reasonableness of the drug test policy and requirement.
However, there is no valid justification for mandatory drug testing for persons accused of crimes punishable with at least 6 years and one day imprisonment as they are singled out and impleaded against their will. The operative concepts in the mandatory drug testing are randomness and suspicionless.
Pimentel, Jr v. COMELEC, GR 161658, November 3, 2008: The mandatory drug test requirements as a pre-condition for the validity of a certificate of candidacy of electoral candidates not established under the Constitution, e.g. local government positions, is valid.7. Warrantless Arrests
Rule 113, Section 5. A peace officer or a private person may, without a warrant, arrest a person:
a. When, in his presence, the person to be arrested has committed, is actually committing, or attempting to commit an offense;
b. When an offense has in fact been committed, and he has personal knowledge of facts indicating that the person to be arrested has committed it; and

Section 3. (1) The privacy of communication and correspondence shall be inviolable except upon lawful order of the court, or when public safety or order requires otherwise as prescribed by law.(2) Any evidence obtained in violation of this or the preceding section shall be inadmissible for any purpose in any proceeding.Scope: Tangible and Intangible Objects.Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 437 (1967): the US Supreme Court held that the act of FBI agents in electronically recording a conversation made by petitioner in an enclosed public telephone booth violated his right to privacy and constituted a search and seizure. Because the petitioner had a reasonable expectation of privacy in using the enclosed booth to make a personal telephone call, the protection of the Fourth Amendment extends to such area. In the concurring opinion of Mr. Justice Harlan, it was further noted that the existence of privacy right under prior decisions involved a two-fold requirement: first, that a person has exhibited an actual (subjective) expectation of privacy; and second, that the expectation be one that society is prepared to recognize as reasonable (objective).Factors to Determine Violation of the Right to Privacy
In the matter of the Petition for Issuance of the Writ of Habeas Corpus of Camilo I. Sabio, GR 174340, October 17, 2006: In evaluating a claim for violation of the right to privacy, a court must determine whether a person has exhibited a reasonable expectation of privacy and, if so, whether that expectation has been violated by unreasonable government intrusion.Briccio Pollo v. Chairperson Karina David, GR 181881, October 18, 2011Anonymous Letter-Complaint against Atty. Miguel Morales, Clerk of Court, Metropolitan Trial Court of Manila, A.M. Nos.

RA No. 4200, Anti-Wiretapping LawRamirez v. CA, 248 SCRA 590: Private communication in Section 1 of RA 4200 is deemed to include private conversations.
Navarro v. CA, GR 121087, August 26, 1999: The Anti-Wiretapping Law prohibits the overhearing, intercepting, or recording of private communications. Thus, a tape recording of an altercation or verbal exchange between a policeman and a radio reporter at a police station is admissible in evidence.
Rule on the Writ of Habeas Data, AM 08-1-16-SC
Writ of Habeas Data: the remedy available to any person whose right to privacy in life, liberty or security is violated or threatened by an unlawful act or omission of a public official or employee, or of a private individual or entity engaged in the gathering, collecting, or storing of data or information regarding the person, family, home and correspondence of the aggrieved party.Not Covered

Section 4. No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances.Content-based Regulation: Restraint is aimed at the message or idea of the expression. Apply the Strict Scrutiny Test and the challenged act must overcome the clear and present danger rule.
Content-neutral Regulation: Restraint is aimed to regulate the time, place or manner of the expression in public place without any restraint on the content of the expression. Apply the Intermediate Approach Test wherein a regulation is justified if it is : within the constitutional power of government, furthers an important or substantial government interest, government interest is unrelated to the suppression of free expression, and the incident restriction on the alleged freedom of speech and expression is no greater than is essential to the furtherance of that interest. Here, it only requires substantial government interest for validity.Facial Challenge Concept: A facial challenge is an exception to the rule that only persons who are directly affected by a statute have legal standing to assail the same. This is only applicable to statutes involving free speech, impeached on the grounds of overbreadth or vagueness. Here, the litigants are permitted to challenge a statute not because their own rights of free expression are violated, but because of a judicial prediction or assumption that the statutes very existence may cause others not before the court to refrain from constitutionally protected speech or expression.Imbong v. Ochoa, GR 204819, April 8, 2014: While this Court has withheld the application of facial challenges to strictly penal statues, it has expanded its scope to cover statutes not only regulating free speech, but also those involving religious freedom, and other fundamental rights. The underlying reason for this modification is simple. For unlike its counterpart in the U.S., this Court, under its expanded jurisdiction, is mandated by the Fundamental Law not only to settle actual controversies involving rights which are legally demandable and enforceable, but also to determine whether or not there has been a grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess of jurisdiction on the part of any branch or instrumentality of the Government.Overbreadth Doctrine: A ground to declare a statute void when it offends the constitutional principle that a government purpose to control or prevent activities constitutionally subject to state regulations may not be achieved by means which sweep unnecessarily broadly and thereby invade the area of protected freedoms.Tests for Valid Government Interference to Freedom of Expression
1. Clear and Present Danger Test
2. Dangerous Tendency Test
3. Balancing of Interest Test
State Regulation of Different Types of Mass Media1. Broadcast and Radio Media: It is subject to dual regulation: First, procure a legislative franchise. Second, register and be subject to regulations set by the NTC. (Divinagracia v. CBS, Inc GR 162272, April 7, 2009)
2. Print Media
The freedom of television and radio broadcasting is lesser in scope that the freedom accorded to newspapers and print media. (Eastern Broadcasting Corp v. Dans Jr)
Private vs. Government speech
Hecklers Veto: This involves situations in which the government attempts to ban protected speech because it might provoke a violent response.1. Prior Restraint: Refers to official governmental restrictions on the press or other forms of expression in advance of actual publication or dissemination.Valid Prior Restraint:
1. Movies, television, and radio broadcast censorship in view of its access to numerous people.
2. Pornography
3. False or misleading commercial statement
4. Advocacy of imminent lawless action
5. Danger to national security (Chavez v. Gonzales)

Tests
a) Clear and Present Danger Test: When words are used in such circumstance and of such nature as to create a clear and present danger that will bring about the substantive evil that the State has a right to prevent.
b) Compelling State Interest Test: When a law of general application infringes religious exercise, albeit incidentally, the state interest sought to be promoted must be so paramount and compelling as to override the free exercise claim. Three-step test:1. Has the statute or government action created a burden on the free exercise of religion?
2. Is there a sufficiently compelling state interest to justify this infringement of religious liberty?
3. Has the state in achieving its legitimate purposes used the least intrusive means possible so that the free exercise is not infringed any more than necessary to achieve the legitimate goal of the state? (Estrada v. Escritor)
c) Conscientious Objector Test: Persons who are conscientiously opposed to participation in war in any form by reason of religious training and belief may be exempted from combat training and service in the armed forces. Religious training and belief means an individuals belief in relation to a Supreme Being involving duties superior to those arising from any human relation, but does not include essentially political, sociological or philosophical views or a merely personal code.Victoriano v.
