143158P.pdf   08/26/2015  United States  v.  Rendy Conant
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3158
                          and No:  14-3201
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Springfield   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Beam and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The misrepresentations in the police 
   officer's affidavit in support of the search warrant application were 
   negligent,rather than reckless and intentional, and Franks does not apply 
   to negligent misrepresentations; since the magistrate judge did not 
   clearly err in finding no knowing or reckless falsity here, the affidavit 
   does not prevent application of the Leon good-faith analysis; as a result, 
   the officers executed the warrants in good faith, and the evidence seized 
   was admissible.
