Is a search warrant valid for search and seizure purposes?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Thompson, 152 Cal.Rptr. 495, 89 Cal.App.3d 425 (Cal. App. 1979):
In traversing the warrant and moving to suppress the evidence, defendant presented no evidence to contradict or impeach the facts as set forth in the affidavit. The question then is whether, as a matter of law, the magistrate's findings are unsupportable. (People v. Aguilar, 240 Cal.App.2d 502, 49 Cal.Rptr. 584; People v. Miller, 85 Cal.App.3d 194, 149 Cal.Rptr. 204.) The warrant is presumptively valid.
