Opinion

HANSON (P. D.) J.

Appellant was convicted of two counts of selling cocaine (Health & Saf. Code, § 11352) and was placed on felony probation for five years with service of nine months in the county jail and payment of a $500 fine imposed as conditions of probation. The main argument presented by appellant is that evidence of the sales of cocaine should be suppressed because information leading to the circumstances of the sales was obtained in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. § 1385) which makes the willful use of the military in executing civil laws a criminal offense.
