Defendant Dennis C. Franks was charged with unlawful possession of marihuana with intent to deliver, MCLA 335.341(l)(c); MSA 18.1070(41)(l)(c). This Court granted defendant leave to appeal following the trial court’s denial of his motion to suppress the evidence of his possession of marihuana.

Defendant contends that the search warrant purportedly authorizing the seizure of this evidence failed to describe the place to be searched with the degree of particularity required by US Const, Am IV; Const 1963, art 1, § 11, and MCLA 780.654; MSA 28.1259C4).
