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.

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.
