Summary

Third Party Search Protection Act - Amends the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure to limit the circumstances under which a search warrant may be issued for property in possession of a third party. Allows a warrant to issue only if: (1) there is probable cause to believe the person in possession of the property committed or is committing a criminal offense; or (2) in any other case, only if a subpoena is not available or the property may be destroyed or removed and a restraining order would not prevent such removal or destruction.
