Defense counsel wasn\u2019t ineffective for not filing a Franks motion that would have failed. Taking the Franks claim at face value, probable cause remains without the information. United States v. Turner, 2022 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 82066 (E.D.Va. May 4, 2022).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The overseizure here came up as a Brady issue. \u201cThe Chandrasekaran search warrant authorized the seizure only of data from the relevant time period of [TEXT REDACTED BY THE COURT].
