P. v. Bobier
After the trial court denied his motion to suppress evidence under Penal Code section 1538.5, Jon Bobier (defendant) pleaded no contest to one count of possession of a controlled substance, methamphetamine, in violation of Health and Safety Code section 11377, subdivision (a). Defendant admitted having suffered a prior conviction for a serious or violent felony (a strike) under Penal Code sections 1170.12, subdivisions (a) through (d) and 667, subdivisions (b) through (i). The trial court sentenced defendant to the midterm of two years, doubled to four years due to the strike conviction. Defendant appeals on the ground that the trial court erroneously denied his motion to suppress evidence because the search of his person was arbitrary and capricious in violation of his rights under article 1, section 13 of the California Constitution and the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution.
