Limitations; mandatory assistance to accomplish interception;
compensation
Sec. 1. (a) A court may not authorize interception under a warrant
or an extension for a period longer than is necessary to achieve the
objective of the warrant or extension. A warrant and each extension
may authorize interception for not more than fourteen (14) days. A
court that issues a warrant or an extension shall order that the
authorized interception must:
(1) occur within three (3) days after the court issues the warrant
or extension;
(2) be conducted in a manner that minimizes the interception of
a communication that is clearly irrelevant to the investigation of
a designated offense; and
(3) terminate upon completion of the authorized objective or
within fourteen (14) days after the interception begins,
whichever occurs first.
(b) A court may grant not more than three (3) extensions.
(c) A warrant or an extension may direct that a person
immediately furnish an applicant all information, facilities, and
technical assistance within that person's control necessary to
accomplish the interception with a minimum of interference with the
services that the person is furnishing to the person whose
communication is to be intercepted. The applicant shall compensate
a person furnishing facilities or technical assistance to the applicant
at the prevailing rates.
