What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a court may authorize a search warrant that allows a law
enforcement officer to search and seize anything that is the fruit of, or has been used
in, the commission of a crime or that may constitute evidence of a crime, if the court
finds probable cause to believe that the search will yield evidence of the crime.
This bill allows a court, upon finding probable cause, to authorize a search
warrant that allows a law enforcement officer to search and seize anything that is

while under the influence of an intoxicant, a controlled substance, a controlled
