No-Knock Warrant

Read a random definition: MIMIC Rule

A quick definition of No-Knock Warrant:

A no-knock warrant is a special permission given to police officers to enter a place without knocking or announcing themselves first. This is only allowed when the police believe that knocking first would be dangerous or would give the people inside time to destroy evidence. The police must have a good reason to get this kind of warrant, and they cannot ignore information that shows they don't need to use it.

A more thorough explanation:

A no-knock warrant is a type of search warrant that allows police officers to enter a property without first announcing their presence or purpose. This type of warrant is used when announcing their presence could lead to the destruction of evidence or put the safety of the officers or others at risk.

For example, if the police suspect that a drug dealer has a weapon and may use it against them if they announce their presence, they may obtain a no-knock warrant to enter the property without warning.

It's important to note that just because a no-knock warrant is issued, it doesn't mean that officers can ignore information that contradicts the need for a no-knock entry. If they receive reliable information that suggests there is no immediate danger, they must take that into consideration before executing the warrant.
