ND: Evidence seized by SW still needs to comply with rules of evidence to be admissible

Just because evidence was seized with a search warrant doesn’t make it admissible. The rules of evidence or other statute or rule still have to be complied with. City of Fargo v. Hofer, 2020 ND 252, 2020 N.D. LEXIS 264 (Dec. 17, 2020).

Defendant’s motion for new trial sought reassessment of a motion to suppress with a post-trial Franks challenge. Defendant doesn’t show it was newly discovered information. People v. Abcumby-Blair, 2020 Mich. App. LEXIS 8611 (Dec. 22, 2020).*
