KY: Rule violation as to notary on an affidavit for SW not enough to suppress without showing prejudice

FourthAmendment.com - News - Tue, 2026-05-05 16:44

The affidavit for the search warrant in this case was signed before a notary public working for the DA, but not one authorized by a judge in violation of the Rules of Criminal Procedure. A violation of the Rules was not a Fourth Amendment issue, defendant cannot show he was prejudiced, and the court will not order suppression of the evidence. Copley v. Commonwealth, 2012 Ky. LEXIS 26 (March 22, 2012):

Suppression under this test is not warranted in this case because neither prong is satisfied. Copley was not prejudiced by the violation of RCr 2.02 and 13.10. There was no allegation or proof that the search would not have occurred absent the rule violation or that the search was abusive. Nor is there evidence that law enforcement officials deliberately disregarded the rules. Rather, given that Ms. Hardy was a notary public, was generally qualified to administer oaths and was employed by the Commonwealth Attorney's office, and that all other requirements for securing the warrant were carefully observed, such as complying with KRS 15.725(5) by having the Commonwealth Attorney and the County Attorney certify that no judge or commissioner was available, it appears that the violation of Rules 2.02 and 13.10 was simply inadvertent.

The notion of needing to show prejudice is a death knell to nearly any suppression motion. How can you show prejudice from the wrong notary? You can't. The affidavit was sworn and seemingly truthful, that's all that's really required.
