What is the standard of review for a search warrant?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Hernandez, 937 F.2d 1490 (9th Cir. 1991):

In reviewing the issuance of a search warrant, we determine whether the magistrate had a substantial basis for concluding that the affidavit in support of the warrant established probable cause. United States v. Angulo-Lopez, 791 F.2d 1394, 1396 (9th Cir.1986). This standard of review is "less probing than de novo review and shows deference to the issuing magistrate's determination." Id. We review alleged misstatements and omissions in the affidavit de novo. United States v. Condo, 782 F.2d 1502, 1506 (9th Cir.1986).
