In the US: Search warrants are issued by judges, magistrates or other judicial officers after application is made by law enforcement. The application (affidavit) identifies the premise(s) to be searched and the probable cause that was developed to support the reason for the search. After review by the judge to be certain that the affidavit is legally sufficient and probable cause does, in fact, exist, the judge signs the affidavit which then legally makes it a warrant and law enforcement carries it out.
