A search warrant may be served anytime after it is issued by a judge. Sometimes time is of the essence, other times the serving agency may want to wait until certain conditions are just right.

What does nightcap mean for a warrant?

The term "nightcap" or night capped warrant refer to warrants issued granting law enforcement officers the right to serve an arrest or search warrant at any time of the night or day. The rationale behind this type of warrant is that, in some instances, to protect officer safety or protect evidence which might otherwise not be available, law enforcement officers must have more latitude with respect to the time of service. Most state laws require that warrants be served during day light hours or have a specific time range for service. Night capped warrants can be served at any time.


Does the day the judge signs the search warrant count?

That's a faulty warrant and has no legal merit of effect. Trying to use such a warrant to gain entry may be interpreted by a court as any of a number of criminal offenses, not limited to trespass, fraud, breaking and entry, kidnapping (if you're taken into "custody"), etc. Make your lawyer's day -- show the faulty warrant to them.
