If police are in possession of evidentiary iterms (i.e. secured via search warrant) and they then want to have one or more evidentiary items sent to the lab for testing, the police need to secure what's called a Joyce warrant for the latter seizure/testing. E.g. police seize bloody pants at a crime scene via search warrant. Police now want to send bloody pants to lab for biological testing. Police get Joyce warrant which permitts the testing on the already seized item. Hope that helps
