In Mississippi, a search warrant does not have a specific statute of limitations; however, it must be executed within a reasonable time frame, typically within five days of issuance.

The exact timing can depend on the circumstances surrounding the warrant's issuance and execution.
If the police search your house with a search warrant are they allowed to return to the premises to search again with the same warrant?
If the police department secured the residence, and maintained security of the residence, they may search it however many times they like, within reason. However, as soon as the department relinquishes authority over the premise, the warrant has been served, thus a new entry would require a new warrant.
What makes a search warrant valid?
A warrant is VALIDATED by the signature of the approving judge or magistrate. An APPLICATION for a warrant must include enough information (who-what-when-where-how) and include "probable cause" that what is sworn to in the warrant is taking place within the premises named.
What does a search warrant include?
Very. This is why Detectives are taught to be broad in their interpretation of what they are looking for in the description in any warrant. They look for illegal drugs, not a small stash of pot. They also look for any other related items that might indicate drug-dealing, which means large sums of cash and guns. A search warrant for a person is typically just that, thay are looking for a person, and not anything else, although they can confiscate anything else illegal, if they see it.
What factors determine whether a search is reasonable or not?
Factors that determine whether a search is reasonable include obtaining a warrant from a judge, having probable cause to conduct the search, ensuring the search falls within the scope of the warrant, and conducting the search without violating constitutional rights such as the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure.
What is a court order allowing an individual or his or her property to be searched or siezed is called?
A court order allowing an individual or their property to be searched or seized is called a search warrant. Search warrants are issued by a judge or magistrate based on probable cause, which is a reasonable belief that a crime has been committed or that evidence of a crime can be found in the location to be searched. Search warrants outline the specific areas to be searched and the items to be seized, ensuring that law enforcement officers conduct the search within the boundaries set by the court.
What if the search warrant has a persons name on it who doesnt even live at residence the warrant was served?
A warrant to search a residence does not need to state the name, or names, of any resident. Although the warrant may state the name of an individual believed to be located upon that property. It only needs to be issued to the address or description of the property upon which it is to be served. However, incorrect information contained within a warrant is potential cause to exclude evidence obtained during the search based upon that warrant. The defense would have to show that the incorrect information was included by law enforcement in bad faith.

What if the search warrant is not executed in 10 days?
Although an "open" serve would be unusual, unless the service time of the warrant was specifically time limited, there is no requirement that a warrant be acted upon within so many days of issuance. Sometimes, situations and events must coincide in order for the warrant to be served and obtain effective results.
What is a blanket warrant that does not indicate what the police might be searching for or where to specifically search?
A Blanket Warrant is a warrant that allows police to search multiple places for evidence without saying exactly what they are looking for. This comes from a judge usually on Murder or Drug charge cases. More information is necessary in order to answer. I have never heard of a "blanket" warrant or any warrant that does not specifically state what is being searched for. As far as a specific location where a search may be conducted - as long as the warrant describes the premises to be searched (street address - name of business - lot & plot number - etc) there is no requirement that it state SPECIFICALLY WHERE within the premises may or may not be searched.
Who has jurisdiction on a military installation located in a foreign country?
Jurisdiction on foreign soil is determined by the SOFA (support of forces agreement) that is signed by the countries involved. In most cases, the country that has the installation on foreign soil will maintain jurisdiction within the confines of the installation. In cases of crimes committed by host nation citizens within the installation the SOFA will define the jurisdiction. Military members will always be subject to the UCMJ abroad as well as at home.
