Yes, a search warrant typically must include the name of the individual or entity to be searched, as well as a description of the premises or items to be seized. This requirement helps ensure that the warrant is specific and limits the scope of the search to what is legally authorized. However, there are instances where a warrant may not name a specific individual, particularly in cases involving multiple suspects or locations. In such cases, the warrant must still provide sufficient detail to comply with legal standards.

If names and dates are wrong on a search warrant is the search warrant still valid?

SEARCH WARRANTS are issued for addresses or specifically described premises. ARREST WARRANTS name a specific name. Which are you referring to? As long as a search warrant is served at the address set forth in the warrant it is immaterial what name appears on it. If it was an arrest warrant in what way was the name wrong? Spelled wrong? Gives their alias or street name? Gives a totally wrong name (i.e.: John Doe instead Jack Smith)?
