It's YOUR home isn't it? Did somebody break into your home and leave their contraband there??? PUHLEEZ!
Yes, you are not necessarily required to be present.
The police kinda get to make up their own rules in most cases. However it was an unauthorized search, you did not give permission and he did not have a warrant. Tell this to your lawyer, attorney or public defender. Good luck.
Police officer with a search warrant can search any home regardless of the situation.
It depends. Warrents allow the police to search something or someone without question (the person cannot refuse the search), so it is good for police. If you happen to be hiding something from the police, then it could be bad for you. It means the police will be able to find whatever you are hiding and you won't be able to say "no, don't search me."
The police must give a copy of the search warrant to the person in charge of the premises at the time the search is conducted. The police must also leave a "return" of the warrant, listing any items seized in the search.Additional: The above information may be a requirement in the contributors own jurisdiction. In others, it is NOT necessary to show or give a copy of the warrant to the individual in charge of the premises, (if any are even present). Mere knowledge of the existence of a valid warrant is sufficient enough to execute it.
Generally, yes.
Ive heard of police with a search warrant finding something non-related to the search warrant, and then issuing a new search warrant on the spot regarding the new issue.
Yes but only if you have been caught before
If the police have "probable cause"., meaning that they may believe there is something illegal, they can.
I guess that they search you first. If something weird is in your house then on your body might help to see what you're up to!
Yes. The occupant/resident need not be present at the time the warrant is executed.
You need to examine your release agreement and local law.
