AC47359 - State v. Sykes (Violation of, and revoking probation; “On appeal, the defendant claims that (1) the court erred in denying his motion to suppress and (2) there was insufficient evidence that he violated his probation. We disagree with these claims. However, because we conclude that one of the three grounds on which the court found the defendant in violation of his probation was not supported by sufficient evidence, and because we cannot be confident that the court’s erroneous factual finding in connection with that ground did not impact the sentence it imposed, we set aside the defendant’s sentence and remand the matter for resentencing.”)
AC47239 - State v. Hamilton (Conditional plea of nolo contendere; criminal possession of
a pistol or revolver; “The defendant entered his conditional plea after the
court denied his motion to suppress evidence seized following the execution of
a search warrant at an apartment in which he resided. On appeal the defendant
claims that the court improperly denied his motion to suppress because the
search warrant application and affidavit failed to establish probable cause for
the search of his apartment and the seizure of property therein. We affirm the
judgment of the trial court.”)
