2Opinion of the Court · KeaslerKeasler, J.

in which KELLER, P.J., WOMACK, JOHNSON, HERVEY, COCHRAN, and ALCALA, JJ„ joined.

Michael Bonds moved to suppress the evidence seized pursuant to a search warrant by contesting the warrant’s validity. The trial judge overruled his motion finding the errors in the warrant’s description of the location to be searched did not invalidate the warrant. The court of appeals found the warrant lacked probable cause and reversed. Finding that the warrant was supported by probable cause and sufficiently particular, we reverse the court of appeals’s judgment.
