''Miller v. United States'', 357 U.S. 301 (1958), was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court, which held that one could not lawfully be arrested in one's home by officers breaking in without first giving one notice of their authority and purpose. In the District of Columbia, officers without a warrant knocked on the door of William Miller's apartment and upon his inquiry, "Who's there?" replied in a low voice, "Police." Miller opened the door but quickly tried to close it, whereupon the officers broke the door, entered, arrested petitioner and seized marked bills which were later admitted as evidence over Miller's objection at a trial in which he was convicted of violations of the narcotics laws. The Supreme Court ruled that the arrest was unlawful, the evidence seized was inadmissible, and the conviction is reversed. ==See also== *List of United States Supreme Court cases, volume 357 *''Ker v.
