No, you do not. Technically (and actually) YOU are in temporary custody. Usually you will be confined to one room or location while the officer(s) conduct their search so that you will not interfere with, or 'contaminate,' the search area. Remember: the officers are serving a WARRANT in YOUR home. If they find the contraband described in the warrant, YOU may be arrested and charged.

Does a warrant to search a premises allow by implication the search of any persons on the premises when the warrant is executed?
NORMALLY, NO. There are exceptions where Officers can search persons on the premises, not named in the Search Warrant. The Search Warrant specifically lists, and outlines what is covered under the warrant. Normally, Search Warrants cover "places" or "items". There may be an exception if someone on the premises appears to present a threat to the Peace/Police Officers conducting the search. (ex: a woman with an open pocketbook which appears as thought the pocketbook might contain a small handgun, is subject to a search. The woman may comprise the Officer's safety and the safety of other people, during the Search.) If the Warrant is a Search for a particular person, normally an Arrest Warrant is issued for the individual, and can be issued in with a Search Warrant.

The officers may also decide that a search of persons is necessary for the safety of the officers.
