1Opinion of the Court

Blackburn, Presiding Judge.

Following a jury trial, Chester Robin Pierce appeals his conviction for possessing methamphetamine, arguing that the court erred in (1) denying his motion to suppress evidence obtained during a search of his residence, (2) refusing to charge the jury on the question of consent to the search, (3) granting the State’s motion to reopen the evidence to present the testimony of Pierce’s co-defendant, and (4) denying his motion for continuance to research the law on impeachment. Discerning no error, we affirm.
