Description
Defendant (appellant) was convicted by the trial court of two Class A misdemeanors: knowingly possessing less than thirty-five
grams of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia. The sole issue on appeal is whether the trial court improperly denied
defendant's motion to suppress. Defendant contends that a search warrant was issued on the basis of an affidavit which did not establish probable cause.
In particular, defendant alleges the affidavit was insufficient to permit the trial court to make a practical, common sense
decision under all the circumstances that probable cause existed for issuance of the warrant, because it contained no basis
for the reliability of an informant (it did not state what reliable information the informant had given on prior occasions);
it did not disclose the basis of the information given by the informant; it was based on hearsay; and it did not contain
collateral facts obtained by direct observation by police officers.
