4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“[Biased on Scott , it could be argued that because Judge Faris lacked legal authority to issue the relevant warrant, the good faith exception is foreclosed. We do not believe, however, that such a broad interpretation of Scott continues to be viable in light of more recent Supreme Court cases ... In Scott , the Court reasoned that where, as here, the magistrate lacks authority to issue the contested warrant, the supposed “good faith” of the officer who executes the warrant can do nothing to confer legal status upon the deficient warrant. This reasoning, while certainly a permissive reading of Leon, is no longer clearly consistent with current Supreme Court doctrine, as the Court has made clear in Herring ... While it appears at first blush that suppression might be inappropriate in this case, we will remand the case to the district court for the purpose of re-examining the facts and balancing the interests as required by Herring.”
