United States v. Luckey Richardson, Jr.

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided September 20, 1991No. 90-2846PublishedCited by 40 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

KING, Circuit Judge:

The government appeals the district court’s order granting defendant Luckey Richardson’s motion to suppress the evidence seized during a search of his home in Los Fresnos, Texas. The court granted Richardson’s motion to suppress, finding that the search warrant violated the Fourth Amendment and Fed.R.Crim.P. 41 because the federal magistrate had failed to administer a proper oath or affirmation to Assistant United States Attorney John G. Crews before he communicated the information supporting the warrant. We reverse the grant and remand the case for further proceedings.
