Personal Privacy Act

Summary

Personal Privacy Act - Requires a subpena duces tecum for the search for and seizure of evidence when anyone acting under color of law has probable cause to believe evidence of a crime is located on or about the premises in which another person is in possession, custody, or control. Permits issuance of a search warrant instead of a subpena duces tecum only if there is: (1) probable cause to believe the person in possession, custody, or control of the evidence to be seized has committed or is committing a criminal offense; or (2) reasonable cause to believe the giving of notice pursuant to a subpena duces tecum would lead to the destruction, concealment, or alteration of such evidence. Prescribes a fine of $10,000 or imprisonment of not more than one year for the violation of this Act.
