Montero v. State
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
Blackburn, Presiding Judge.
On interlocutory grant, Angel Samuel Montero appeals the trial court’s denial of his motion to suppress evidence of marijuana found *182in a closed container in the trunk of his car following a routine traffic stop for tinted windows. Because this case is controlled by DiSanti v. State,1 not Boggs v.

Accordingly, we reverse.
