SEARCH WARRANTS ACT 1985 - SECT 12C

12C Further application for warrant after refusal

(1) If an application by a person for a search warrant is refused by an authorised justice, that person (or any other person who is aware of the application) may not make a further application for the same warrant to that or any other authorised justice unless the further application provides additional information that justifies the making of the further application.

(2) However, a further application may be made to a Magistrate following a refusal to issue the warrant by an authorised justice who is not a Magistrate whether or not additional information is provided in the further application. Only one such further application may be made in any particular case.
