What two time details must be included on the warrant?

• A. Date/time of execution and date/time served
• B. Date of issuance and time of notification
• C. Start date and end date
• D. Time the police arrived and left

Answer: (A)

The important idea is that a warrant is a time‑bound command, so it must specify exactly when action may take place and when notice is given. The two time details required are the date and time of execution—that is, the moment the officers may carry out the search or arrest under the warrant—and the date and time of service, meaning when the warrant is formally delivered to the person or at the premises. These two times create the permissible window for action and provide a clear record of when the warrant was served. Other options mix in issuance, notification, or officer movement, which aren’t the two specified time details that the warrant must include.
