P. v. Butler
Reginald Butler appeals a judgment entered following his guilty plea to one count of possession of cocaine base, a controlled substance (Health & Saf. Code, 11350, subd. (a)). On appeal, he contends: (1) he was denied his statutory right to have the same judge hear his second motion to suppress evidence under Penal Code[1]section 1538.5; (2) the doctrine of collateral estoppel barred the trial court from admitting evidence suppressed in response to his first motion to suppress; and (3) he was denied his constitutional right to due process of law.
