A Question of Probable Cause
You may think that if you have been charged with a crime such as operating a meth lab or distribution of marijuana or cocaine from your home that you have no rights – that you have no defense. This is not true. It is the responsibility of the prosecution to prove their case against you.
One of the factors that critically influence the evidence that can be used by prosecution to prove their case has to do with the probable cause to obtain a search warrant or to conduct a search without a warrant. If the manner in which a search warrant was issued or conducted lacks probable cause, a motion to suppress may be filed.
