     626.11 Issuance of warrant. 

    (a) If the judge is satisfied of the existence of the 
 grounds of the application, or that there is probable cause to 
 believe their existence, the judge must issue a signed search 
 warrant, naming the judge's judicial office, to a peace officer 
 inside or outside the officer's jurisdiction.  The warrant shall 
 direct the officer to search the person or place named for the 
 property or things specified, and to retain the property or 
 things in the officer's custody subject to order of the court 
 issuing the warrant.  

    (b) Nothing in sections 626.04 to 626.17 is meant to 
 supersede another law or statute that limits a peace officer's 
 authority to obtain, serve, or execute a search warrant.
