1Opinion of the Court

Jack Holt, Jr., Chief Justice.

Petitioner, Michael Herrington, was convicted by a jury of possession of a controlled substance. He appealed, arguing that the trial court erred by denying his motion to quash the search warrant since the supporting affidavit did not mention the time during which the criminal activity was observed. The Arkansas Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction in a three-three decision. Herrington v. State, 15 Ark. App. 248, 692 S.W.2d 251 (1985). As we granted petitioner’s petition for review, our jurisdiction is pursuant to Sup. Ct. R. 29(6). We reverse.
