“In determining whether probable cause exists for the issuance of a search warrant, our Supreme Court has provided that the totality of the circumstances test is to be applied. Under the totality of the circumstances test, the task of the issuing magistrate is simply to make a practical, common sense decision whether, given all the circumstances set forth in the affidavit before him, including the veracity and basis of knowledge of persons supplying hearsay information, there is a fair probability that contraband or evidence of a crime will be found in a particular place. And the duty of a reviewing court is simply to ensure that the magistrate had a substantial basis for concluding that probable cause existed.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[t]his court has already established the irreducible minimum circumstances that must be set forth in support of an informant's reliability to sustain a warrant. In Altman , the affiant's statement that the confidential informant has proven reliable and credible in the past was held to meet the minimum standards to sustain a warrant. In the present case, the affiant's statement that the confidential informant had given this agent good and reliable information in the past that had been checked by the affiant and found to be true also meets this minimum standard.”
