Are you a law-abiding citizen?

It would be such a Dresden type loophole to use that with the cliche of "home is wherever you are", and have someone believe that strongly enough to make the other person a living vampire repellent.
Upon further consideration and two drinks, I deand Hollywood use this as the twist ending to give Blade the love interest they're going to force in no matter what in the reboot.
Then in the sequel he sells out and gets a fancy new
BatcaveCrypt(?) funeded by some asshole who turns out to be the villain.And Blade's conviction falters and it breaks her protection just long enough to get her tragically killed, setting up therevenge plot for the third movie.
God wqhy am I not a screenwriter. It's not good, but it would sell.

Participated in democracy? Devoured by vampires, lmao
A fitting end

I think the vampire physically could enter because the warrant is basically allowing them to enter a space they otherwise would need express permission from the person that dwells there. I haven't known a cop otherwise to serve the warrant and then just stand awkwardly waiting for permission to enter afterwards. If we are to believe that vampires exist in this context and follow "traditional" rules, you best believe a vampire could be in any given profession, especially because night work is more prevalent than ever. There would certainly be a vampire cop who works at night and takes advantage of the way warrants work.
Vampires are older than property law, I think the power that keeps them out comes from physically dwelling in the place. As long as they're still living there, regardless of what a judge decided, it's their home as far as a vampire is concerned. Otherwise they could just ask each other for permission to enter someone else's house. I'm trying to remember if this came up in Buffy...

Okay so then in Blade 3 its bsically Blade goign John Wick on some vampires until he finds out the vamp who killed his love is now part of a cult tying to smmon a demon.Then at the climax of the movie he has to choose betoween getting his revenge and stopping the summoning. and Blade is too driven by fury and he goes for revenge. So cliffhanger ending, the demon pops out of a portal. folloed by...
JOHN CONSTANTINE!
THAT'S RIGHT BIGHTCHES, BLADE 4 IS A BACKDOOR MARVEL/DC CROSSOVER!

Legally? Yes. Physically? No.

So what I'm gathering here is that you do indeed have vampires inside
Nope, absolutely no vampires here, definitely none at all, no siree. No vmpires in this house.

In this same vein, if a vamp-cop's partner entered the home, then invited the vamp-cop in, would the vamp-cop be able to enter then?
Only the people living there can invite a vampire in.

I think hearth magic doesn't work that way. When you live somewhere and set up a presence, it becomes your domain.
A warrant doesn't take that away from you. You need permission to travel safely into someone's domain. -
Bram Stoker had a different take
Writers need to be interpreted, because it's unlikely that they actually understand what they wrote. Therefore, when employing a novel to address a problem, my interpretation is probably more important than the original work.
It's not even clear that Bram Stoker had a good understanding of the word "Dracula": https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=2467&v=BvFwqVzEsfw&feature=youtu.be

Legally, yes.
Physically (for supernatural reasons), no.

“Can I enter your home to arrest you?”

That's genuinely quite interesting, thank you! 🤩

Well by that logic, if you found a vampire's lair /tomb while they slept, and then three a tent over it, wouldn't that cause them to die?
I'm def of the opinion its all about entering a building (not necessarily about being in one).
Wait but if building a tent around it doesn't kill them, which I agree with, it means that they would be allowed in if the domicile was formed around them without their knowing.
So by that logic, do Vampires get squatters rights?
If they get into a domicile not knowing there is an owner, then the owner arrives, are they ejected or are they allowed to stay? What if you build your house on top of the entrance to their tomb? Are they forced to ask permission to leave their tomb and thus enter your domicile?

A vampire police officer would have to abide by both rules. They would need a warrant and an invite. A warrant is legal permission, but not an invite.

Then you don't have the authority to grant them entrance
