2001 Senate Bill 730 ↩

House Roll Call 210: Passed

To establish that if a search warrant affidavit is attached to the warrant, a peace officer is not required to show the affidavit to the subject at the time of the search. The affidavit could only be suppressed until charges are brought. However, if no charges are brought, the affidavit would still be "non-public" information under the bill. The affidavit establishes probable grounds for issuing a warrant, and often contains the names and addresses of victims or other persons supplying information regarding a crime.
