As amended through November 13, 2023
Rule 13.6 - Issuance and Execution of Warrants for Illegally Possessed Pictures and Literature

If a warrant issued under this rule shall provide for the seizure of tangible instruments of expression, including but not limited to moving or still pictures, recordings, books, or other literature, the warrant shall authorize the seizure only of such instruments or copies thereof as are reasonably necessary for evidentiary use in a proceeding to determine whether the content of such instruments is constitutionally protected. If the effect of seizing such instruments or copies thereof is to stop or substantially impede their showing or distribution, the warrant shall provide that the possessor of such instruments be given a reasonable opportunity to furnish duplicate copies for seizure, or that he may retain possession of them and must display them during an adversary proceeding or at such times and places, including trial, as the court having jurisdiction over the matter may direct.
