David GARRISON v. STATE of Arkansas

CR 74-101

515 S.W. 2d 222

Opinion delivered October 21, 1974

[Rehearing denied December 2, 1974.]

Adams & Covington, for appellant.

Jim Guy Tucker, Atty. Gen., by: Gary Isbell, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Conley Byrd, Justice.

Appellant David Garrison’s sole contention for reversal of his two year conviction and sentence for possession of a controlled substance (LSD) is that the trial court should have excluded under the Fourth Amendment, as an illegal search, any evidence of the drugs that he voluntarily delivered to a confidential informant and an undercover narcotics agent. We find no merit in the contention. See Lewis v. United States, 385 U.S. 206, 87 S. Ct. 424, 17 L. Ed. 312 (1966).

Affirmed.
