Q: Do they have to show you the warrant upon entry

A: In Nevada, law enforcement officers are generally required to show you a warrant if you request to see it when they are executing a search or arrest warrant at your residence. However, there are exceptions, such as when doing so could compromise the search or if there are safety concerns. If they refused to show you the warrant, it could raise questions about whether they followed proper procedures.

A: In Nevada, law enforcement officers are generally required to show you a copy of the search warrant if you request to see it during their entry or search. This is part of your rights to ensure that the search is lawful and that they are following the specific terms outlined in the warrant.

However, there may be situations where officers do not immediately provide the warrant. For instance, they might claim exigent circumstances or other legal justifications for delaying the presentation. Even so, you have the right to ask to see it, and they should provide it to you as soon as possible.

If they refuse or delay showing the warrant, this could be a point of contention in any legal proceedings that follow. It's important to remember these actions and consider consulting legal counsel to review the circumstances surrounding the search and any potential violations of your rights.
