P. v. Tomlinson
Defendant was convicted of possession of cocaine (Health & Saf. Code, 11350, subd. (a)[1]) and possession of less than 28.5 grams of marijuana ( 11357, subd. (b)). Imposition of sentence was suspended and she was placed on two years formal probation and ordered to pay probation fees and costs. She contends her admissions to law enforcement officers that the controlled substances belonged to her were made in the course of a custodial interrogation, prior to any advisement of her rights, in violation of Miranda v. Arizona (1966) 384 U.S. 436 (Miranda), and therefore should have been excluded from evidence at trial. She also contends that payment of probation costs should not have been made a condition of probation. Court modify the judgment and affirm.
