1. “[D]efendant's motion to dismiss at trial was based upon his contention that he did not have an "ownership interest [in the vehicle] short of possession,". . . However, on appeal, defendant argues the trial court erred by denying his motion to dismiss because the State failed to prove that he possessed the [vehicle] with the [controlled substance] in the trunk for a substantial period of time. Accordingly, as defendant presents a different theory to support his motion to dismiss than that he presented at trial, this assignment of error is waived.”
