Johnson v. State
Court of Appeals of Arkansas
1Opinion of the Court
John B. Robbins, Judge.
Appellant Michael Lee Johnson was convicted by a jury of possession of methamphetamine with intent to deliver, and was sentenced to ten years in prison. Mr. Johnson raises two arguments on appeal. First, he argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress contraband because the affidavit in support of the search warrant was flawed. He further argues that his motion to suppress should have been granted because the contraband was obtained as a result of his illegal arrest. We agree with appellant’s second argument, and we reverse and remand.
