United States Eleventh Circuit
US v. SANTA, 99-12086
While anticipatory search warrants that allow for search of premises where contraband is anticipated are not per se unconstitutional, where law enforcement agents have ample time and information to secure one, lack of time to obtain warrant after delivery of contraband is insufficient to justify a warrantless search.
