State v. Abbott

WASSERSTROM, Presiding Judge.

He appeals, raising the following points: (1) that the key evidence in this case was obtained by the prosecution through an illegal search and seizure; (2) that the evidence was insufficient to support a conviction; and (3) that the trial court improperly permitted the introduction of evidence with respect to another crime. We reject each of those points and therefore affirm.
