Opinion
WRIGHT, C. J.
An information charged defendant with unlawfully possessing heroin for sale. (Health & Saf. Code, § 11500.5.) At a special pretrial hearing he moved to suppress evidence on the ground that it was obtained by an unreasonable, search without a warrant. (Pen. Code, § 1538.5.) The superior court denied his motion. He then filed a timely, formally sufficient petition for a writ of prohibition to review the superior court’s ruling. The Court of Appeal summarily denied the petition by minute order without opinion and defendant’s petition for hearing was denied by this court.
