UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT

★ Middle District of Alabama
★ Northern District of Alabama
★ Southern District of Alabama

★ Northern District of Florida
★ Southern District of Florida
★ Middle District of Georgia
★ Northern District of Georgia

These districts were originally part of the Fifth Circuit, but were split off to form the Eleventh effective October 1, 1981. For this reason, Fifth Circuit decisions from before this split are considered binding precedent in the Eleventh Circuit.
The court is based at the Elbert P. Tuttle U.S. Court of Appeals Building in Atlanta, Georgia.
It is one of thirteen United States courts of appeals.
As of 2006, the judges on the court are:
★ There are currently no Circuit vacancies.
The court is based in the Elbert P. Tuttle U.S. Court of Appeals Building at 56 Forsyth Street, NW in Atlanta, Georgia. Designed and constructed in the Italian Renaissance Revival style, it has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The four story granite building has a total area of 158,000 ft² (14,700 m²).
In a 2004 ruling concerning magnetometer searches of antiwar protesters, the Court cited a Wikipedia entry about Homeland Security Advisory System and its five defined threat levels.[1]
[2]. In Bourgeois v. Peters, 387 F.3d 1303 (11th Cir. Oct. 2004), the court held that "the mass, suspicionless, warrantless magnetometer searches violate their Fourth Amendment right to be free of 'unreasonable searches and seizures'" were violative of the 4th Amendment.
