1Opinion of the Court

LEHMAN, Justice.

Pursuant to a plea agreement, Appellant Alexander L. Morris (Morris) pled guilty to charges of conspiracy to deliver controlled substances and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, while reserving the right on appeal to seek review of the district court’s ruling on his motion to suppress. The issue we decide is whether the district court erred in determining that the search of Morris’ wallet by a deputy sheriff (Deputy) was a reasonable search and thus tihe fruits derived from the search were admissible evidence.

We reverse.
