View this case - free

Pearce was not implicated because the new sentences consecutively totaled 45 years-clearly less than the original 71-year concurrent sentences-and did not exceed the statutory limit.

Overview: Suppression of Hydrocodone, a Schedule III narcotic, found during a consensual encounter with defendant, and in plain view, was properly denied, as the drug's incriminating nature was readily apparent, and the officer had probable cause to believe, at the time of the seizure, that defendant's temporary possession was not for a legitimate purpose.

Stat.

Overview: In a divorce proceeding, the trial court properly awarded a wife her attorney's fees as a sanction because the husband was not forthright with his financial affairs and failed to comply with discovery requests.
