§ 22-2511 No warrant quashed for technicality.

Here's a plain English summary of this rule:

If a search warrant has small mistakes in it, like a typo or a minor paperwork error, that alone won't get the warrant thrown out. Courts won't toss out evidence just because of these small technical slip-ups.

The key question is whether the mistake actually hurt the rights of the person being charged with a crime. If the error was minor and didn't cause any real harm to the accused person's rights, the warrant stays valid and the evidence can still be used in court.

This rule exists so that cases don't fall apart over paperwork mistakes that don't really matter. It focuses on whether someone's actual rights were violated, not on whether every single detail on a warrant was filled out perfectly.
