Who approves search warrants?
a judge approves them. Evidence is required thoAnother View: (in the US) Evidence is not necessary to apply for, or receive, a search warrant. Only a signed, sworn affidavit that spells out the probable cause for the issuance of the warrant is necessary.
Is giving consent to search a home the same as a search warrant?
NO, it isn't. A search warrant limits the scope of a search. Once you have consented to a search, you have placed yourself outside the protections of the fourth amendment! There is no longer any requirements of reasonability and you will likely be prevented from supressing any resulting evidence later on. NEVER consent to a search!
Can police search for evidence if asked for proof of a search warrant and they say it is on its way but never produce any warrant?
Yes, all they have to do is have knowledge that the warrant was signed by a judge. There's really no reason to BS you. If they were, then their whole search would have been in vain, because anything they found would be inadmissible in court. If they never produce a search warrant, then they have indeed violated your rights under the 4th amendment, and anything they find CAN NOT be used against you, as stated above.
Police never ask if they can search the car in Texas?
The vehicle can be searched with probable cause, or if the car is being impounded an inventory will be done. The police do sometimes ask for permission as well, and that is another way the search can be valid.
If you have not been charged or arrested can police still search your vehicle?
It depends on the circumstances. For instance, if you are pulled over for a minor traffic violation and there is no reasonable suspicion that you have done anything else illegal, you can refuse consent to search. Some police officers will tell you that you can't refuse, but I have done it several times. That said, it may depend on the locality as to how it will play out. Here in my city, if you are polite, you normally won't have a problem. Additionally, an officer can ask you to get out of the car, and can perform a search of your person for weapons, but I have never had that happen. The few times I've refused consent, the officer usually asks why and I simply reply, "Because I know I don't have anything illegal in my vehicle, so there is no reason for you to search it," and that ended it. As a general rule, a police officer can tell the difference between someone who is trying to hide something and someone who is simply reserving his rights.

Can the police search your car for running a red light?
The police cannot search a vehicle unless they have a warrant for an arrest on the driver or any passenger, or they have reason to suspect that person is under the influence of drugs or alcohol use, or committed robbery or something. But, if a person runs a red light, that is reason enough to believe anything.For officer safety, they can search the "lunge area," the area immediately within the drivers reach. Also, they don't have to have a warrant for arrest, they can perform an "administrative (inventory) search" subsequent to the arrest of the driver, if the driver is arrested for any reason, warrant or not. "Reason to suspect" is not adequate; they have to have "probable cause." While running a red light might be reason enough for "mere suspicion," it is not enough to search the entire vehicle. They can also ask the driver for consent to search (which should never be granted); most give consent even when they know there are illegal items in the vehicle. (I guess they think they will look suspicious if they don't and that the police won't find anything.) And finally, if a narcotics detection dog alerts on the outside of the vehicle, that gives probable cause to search.
The police may never delay a search to arrest?
Wrong. If a wanted subject comes to their immediate attention the arrest takes precedence, whereas, a search warrant can be delayed (unless the court specified the times/dates) at the option of the agency conducting the search.
