Typically, laws regarding contraband contain exemptions for legitimate law enforcement purposes, and the appropriate LE agencies would be in possession of said contraband throughout the legal proceedings.

That said, it's a shittily-written law and I'll grind Ms. Garcia's bones to make my bread.

Next time you have a question of this ~~absurdity~~nature, just PM me.

the text of this law explicitly exempts legitimate law enforcement purposes, which means it would be fine for a judge to use the computer to inspect the evidence.
it was more the concept i was laughing at. the law is ridiculous.
