Pretty sure if the search warrant isn't legit then any evidence obtained is null and cannot be used in a trial?
But because this isn't an American Cop drama, you can forget about a dodgy warrant being used in the real world. He, (or she), may not have been up to anything.
Somebody residing at the address, (maybe an offspring, or even lodger), will certainly be suspected of being up to something.
A chap I know through work, a chap of Muslim persuasion, suffered this fate through anti terrorism stuff, he says he couldn't return to his home for several days.

Thank you for te replies, reason I ask is because it happened on a Sunday in the afternoon, so I guess they acted on some intelligence, but the person they were after does not live at my property. Magistrate signing out of warrant would explain why my local court can not find the magistrate named on the warrant.

If they were after a person, was it not just an arrest warrant as opposed to a search warrant?s2bounce said:

That sounds seriously out of order to me, if magistrates hand them out like that, then looks like we've lost the entire point of having them at all.Gassing Station | Speed, Plod & the Law | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
