What is the legal test for obtaining a warrant for wiretapping in the executive branch?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Dominguez, F068122 (Cal. App. 2015):

which chief investigative officer reviewed and approved the application for a warrant. The latter requirement is so the review process within the executive agency seeking the wiretap does not reach into the lower echelons of command. (United States v. Cox (8th Cir. 1972) 462 F.2d 1293, 1300.) This policy was achieved in the instant action.
