Is it legal to hire a private eye to spy on someone?
<|assistant|>
In most cases, it is legal to hire a private detective or a private eye to investigate and spy on someone, however, in some jurisdictions, there may be laws that restrict or limit the ability of individuals and businesses to conduct surveillance of another person. Depending on the jurisdiction, the private detective or private eye may need to get a court order before conducting the investigation or surveillance. Moreover, in certain states, any information acquired from the private eye needs to be reported to the court as it may be inadmissible in court.
