032464P.pdf   06/01/2004  USA  v.  Jay Todd Hessman
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  03-2464
   Northern District of Iowa   
   Criminal case - criminal law. Looking to Leon and precedent from 
   other circuits, the fact that the warrant the magistrate judge issued was 
   based on an unsigned, unsworn affidavit did not make executing officer's 
   reliance on it unreasonable or invalidate the search and seizure, and the 
   district court erred in applying a type of per se rule that an unsigned, 
   unsworn application for a search warrant could not qualify for 
   consideration under the Leon good-faith exception; district court erred in 
   suppressing the evidence seized during the search and defendant's 
   subsequent incriminating statements.
