• 7 N.W.3d 585

Syllabus

1. The district court did not commit reversible error when it concluded that an application for a warrant to search appellant's Facebook accounts provided the issuing judge with a substantial basis for determining that there was a fair probability that evidence of the alleged crimes would be found on those accounts. 2. Given the circumstances of the case, the nature of the crimes under investigation, and the difficulty of articulating a more precise description of the evidence sought, the district court did not commit reversible error when it determined that the warrant satisfied minimal constitutional requirements for particularity. 3. The district court did not abuse its discretion by summarily denying appellant's petition for postconviction relief. Affirmed.
