State v. Hodge
Court of Appeals of Oregon

1Opinion of the CourtSchwab, C.J.
Defendant appeals from a conviction upon trial to the court without a jury of possession of a narcotic drug, heroin. Former OBS 474.020. One of the issues presented on appeal is whether or not the state established a sufficient chain of custody of the narcotic allegedly found on the defendant. There is no merit to the defendant’s contention that the state did not, and a discussion of it is not warranted beyond noting that the principle involved is dealt with in detail in State v. Anderson, 242 Or 368, 409 P2d 681 (1966), and State v. Winslow, 3 Or App 140, 472 P2d 852 (1970).
