After a judge signs a warrant, how many days does the officer have to serve it?

Once a judge signs a warrant, the officer has 10 days to serve it. This timeframe is established to ensure that law enforcement acts promptly in executing the warrant while also respecting the rights of the individuals involved. Serving the warrant within this period is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the judicial process and ensuring that evidence or circumstances relevant to the warrant remain applicable. If the warrant is not served within these 10 days, it may become invalid, necessitating the issuance of a new warrant if the law enforcement agency still needs to act.
