-Based on the news that the Supreme Court will [likely overturn abortion rights](https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/02/supreme-court-abortion-draft-opinion-00029473), I began wondering how often previous rulings are overturned.

 In Robbins, the Supreme Court stated that the Fourth Amendment provides protection to the owner of every container that conceals its contents from plain view. But in Ross, the court found that there is a motor vehicle exception to this rule which allows law enforcement to search containers found in a vehicle (in this case the trunk) if they already have probable cause to perform a legal warrantless search of the automobile.
