A judge must sign a warrant for it to be active!
A warrant is an order from a judge to search for something or to arrest a person.
No, they have to actually go to the judge and present the evidence showing that the warrant is necessary. If the judge approves, he has to sign the warrant for it to be legal. The officer must then have it with them when they go to wherever the warrant is for. The warrant is also only good for 24 hours, unless otherwise specified.Added: An officer applying for a warrant does NOT have to produce evidence to the judge of the offense, he only has to swear an oath that Probable Cause exists for the search and/or arrest. Also - although an issuing judge MAY place a service time limit on the warrant, they do not necessarily automatically expire within a 24 hour time limit.
A JUDICIAL Officer must review the affidavit for legal sufficiency - once they sign it it becomes valid. A judicial officer would include a Judge, Justice Of The Peace, or a Magistrate.
