What is the test for overturning a finding of probable cause to issue a warrant?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Montalvo, 972 F.2d 1346 (9th Cir. 1992):

A magistrate's finding of probable cause to issue a warrant will be overturned only if it is clearly erroneous. United States v. McQuisten, 795 F.2d 858 (9th Cir.1986). A district court's determination that a warrant was not overbroad is reviewed de novo. United States v. Spilotro, 800 F.2d 959 (9th Cir.1986).
