Rule 13.1. Search warrant; requirements; form and contents

No search or inspection warrant shall be issued against a minor, unless it is pursuant to a sworn statement given before a judge under oath or attesting thereto, which establishes the facts that served as grounds to issue it. If, from the sworn statement and the examination of the deponent, the judge is convinced that there is probable cause for the search or inspection, he shall issue the warrant in which he shall name or describe, in detail, the person or the place to be searched and the things or property that shall be seized. The warrant shall state the grounds for the issuing thereof and the name of the persons on whose sworn statement it is grounded, he shall direct the official to whom it is addressed to immediately search the person or place indicated therein, to seize the property specified, and return the served order to the judge, together with the property seized. The warrant shall be executed during the daytime hours, unless the judge, due to reasons of necessity and urgency, provides that the same be executed at any time of the day or night.
