But it's the police that approach the judge in the first place to get the warrant. Excuse my ignorance of US law, but do you guys have Magistrates? i.e. a 'minor' judge that has limited power, normally focussing on minor crimes. Magistrates in the UK are very often voluntary (aka Justices of the Peace). It's Magistrates that normally grant search warrents here. -- Paul [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
