Title 234--RULES OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE Search Warrant Forms [28 Pa.B. 5330] Introduction Rule 5 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure states that the Court Administrator, in consultation with the Criminal Procedure Rules Committee, shall design and publish forms necessary to implement the Rules of Criminal Procedure. One of the most important of such forms is that authorizing a search.
The new search warrant forms had to be both legally correct and ultimately designed with the user in mind. After an extended collaborative process involving distinguished judges, lawyers, and others with substantial experience in this area, the new search warrant forms are ready. I have approved the forms for use effective October 24, 1998.
