Probably not. Unless there is a specific expiration date
included in the language of the warrant, it must be executed
within a "reasonable time." Ten days would be reasonable
under most any circumstance.

The most likely way to challenge a warrant's validity is the
affidavit its issuance was based on and the specificity of
the warrant as to place to be searched and items to be
searched for.
