N.D.Cal.: Govt bears burden of showing attachment limiting search was actually attached, and it failed

For the government to rely on the good faith exception by claiming the attachment limiting the warrant was attached to the search warrant, it bears the burden of showing that, and it didn’t.
United States v. Chang, 2019 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 109933 (N.D. Cal. July 2, 2019).

“[A]pplying the ‘corrected affidavit test’ to the facts at issue in this case, a neutral magistrate would still have probable cause upon which to issue a search warrant.” United States v. Rivera, 2019 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110364 (D. Conn. July 2, 2019).*
