What is the scope of the search warrant used in this case?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Honore, 450 F.2d 31 (9th Cir. 1972):

The words therein "tending to establish the identity of the persons in control of the premises" sufficiently identify and limit the items to be seized. Compare the language used in this warrant with that used in the warrant in Stanley v. Georgia, 394 U.S. 557, 570, 89 S.Ct. 1243, 22 L.Ed.2d 542 (1969) (concurring opinion). The warrant being sufficiently particularized as to the place to be searched and the items to be seized, the search was proper. Appellant also complains of the fact that prior to securing the search warrant in question, the officer involved had observed certain of the allegedly stolen items specified in the warrant through an uncurtained window from a public stairway where they were in plain view inside the residence later searched. This view was not an illegal search and in no way tainted the actual search or the warrant.
