In the Matter of the United States' Application for Authorization to Obtain Physical Location Data for One Device for Investigation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and Other Offenses

The United States government has filed an application in the Northern District of California to obtain physical location data for one device as part of an investigation into alleged narcotics trafficking offenses under 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). The application, which includes an order for a warrant, is currently pending before a yet-to-be-assigned judge.

This case marks the latest development in the government's efforts to gather evidence in support of its investigation. The court has issued an order, but details of the order are not yet publicly available. The case remains active, with the next steps likely to involve the assignment of a judge and the potential issuance of a warrant.

The government's application for authorization to obtain physical location data is a key aspect of the investigation, and the outcome of this case will have significant implications for the government's ability to gather evidence in similar cases in the future.
