Warrant Request Flow

Warrant request materials can be represented as simplified process records. Honesty note: simplified US federal classroom model; Fourth Amendment doctrine and state rules vary; the pinned first step states the as-of date; not legal advice.

Use a process model

The stated process models request record, affidavit packet, judge review, execution event, return record, and human review.

request to return to review\text{request to return to review}

Example warrant packet

The toy packet starts with a request record, attaches an affidavit packet, routes to judge review, then records execution and return events.

packet plus review plus return\text{packet plus review plus return}

The flow recomputes process size

The procedure flow recomputes 6 nodes and 5 edges from the authored process route.

nodes=6,edges=5\text{nodes}=6,\quad \text{edges}=5

Diagram note

The diagram is a process flow. It does not evaluate any request, packet, review, execution, or return event.

Summary

Warrant-request data should keep process records and human review visible without adding a legal result.
