D.Mass.: 17-day delay between seizure and SW was reasonable

“[T]he government’s seventeen-day delay between the warrantless seizure of Thompson’s property and the issuance of the search warrants was reasonable. The first factor favors the government because seventeen days—eleven of which were business days—is relatively short and far shorter than other instances in which courts have deemed a delay in securing a warrant reasonable.” United States v. Thompson, 2024 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 228675 (D. Mass. Dec. 18, 2024).

Driving several seconds on the fog line was reasonable suspicion for a stop. United States v. Garcia, 2024 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 229432 (N.D. Okla. Dec. 19, 2024).*

“Assuming, arguendo, that Defendant has standing to raise the concerns here at issue, the affidavits set forth ample indicia of probable cause; are sufficiently particular as to the items to be searched; demonstrate the required ‘probable cause nexus,’ … and are neither vague nor conclusory. … (‘probable cause is not a “high bar”’). Contrary to the suggestion of Defendant’s counsel, these are not ‘bare bones’ warrants that might merit striking. … Moreover, even if the Court were to now find the warrants lacking—which it does not—the officers relied in good faith on the two search warrants at issue and the good faith exception would apply.” United States v. Holmes, 2024 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 229724 (S.D. Ohio Dec. 19, 2024).*
