The correct answer is C). The expectation of privacy test.

Katz vs. United States was a case of 1967.

Federal agents attached an eavesdropping device in a public phone booth used by Katz because the government suspected Katz was transmitting gambling information to his clients in other states.

Katz was convicted. But he appealed, arguing that the recordings could not be used as an evidence of his wrongdoings. The Court of Appeals rejected his petition.
