I consulted with local attorney and they said it's no big deal
It sounds like you've already sought legal advice, which is great. In Georgia, executing a search warrant outside the specified hours can be significant. If you're unsure about your local attorney's advice, consider seeking a second opinion. Is there anything else you need help with?
Why would it not impact the case
In Georgia, if a search warrant is executed outside the specified time, it can impact the case if it leads to a constitutional violation. However, if the evidence obtained is not crucial or if the violation is deemed minor, it might not significantly affect the case. Consulting another attorney for a second opinion could clarify the situation further.
