UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Ramon R. HOPE, Defendant-Appellant, 609 F. App'x 156

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Ramon R. Hope appeals the district court’s order revoking his supervised l-e-lease. Hope contends that the evidence supporting the supervised release revocation was seized in violation of his Fourth Amendment rights and that the district court erred in declining to apply the exclusionary rule. Finding no reversible error, we affirm. A district court’s decision to revoke supervised release is reviewed for abuse of discretion. United States v. Pregent, 190 F.3d 279, 282 (4th Cir.1999).

In considering the denial of a motion to suppress, we review the district court’s factual findings for clear error and its legal conclusions de novo. United States v. Brown, 757 F.3d 183, 190 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, - U.S. -, 135. S.Ct. 229, 190 L.Ed.2d 173 (2014). Hope’s claim that the evidence should have been suppressed fails because the exclusionary rule does not apply in supervised release revocation proceedings. See Pa. Bd. of Prob. & Parole v.

Scott, 524 U.S. 357, 365, 118 S.Ct. 2014, 141 L.Ed.2d 344 (1998) (stating that “exclusionary rule ... is incompatible with the traditionally flexible, administrative procedures of parole revocation”); United States v. Armstrong, 187 F.3d 392, 393-95 (4th Cir.1999) (applying Scott in context of federal supervised release revocation proceedings). Other circuits. have recognized an exception to this rule in the case of police harassment. See, e.g., United States v. Charles, 531 F.3d 637, 640 (8th Cir.2008); United States v. Montez, 952 F.2d 854, 857 (5th Cir.1992); United States v.

Farmer, 512 F.2d 160, 162 (6th Cir.1975). We conclude that the facts of this case do not support the application of such an exception. We therefore affirm the district court’s order. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED.
