386 State v. Cunningham
PER CURIAM
In this consolidated appeal, defendant appeals a
judgment of conviction for unlawful delivery of methamphetamine (Case No. 17CR43550); a judgment of conviction
for unlawful possession of methamphetamine (Case No.
17CR30472); and a judgment of probation revocation (Case
No. 14C40932). She raises a single assignment of error in
each of the three cases.
In her first assignment of error, defendant asserts
that the trial court erred in denying her motion to suppress
evidence found in her car during an inventory in Case No.
17CR43550. We reject that assignment of error without
discussion.
In her second assignment of error, defendant contends that the court erroneously denied her motion to suppress evidence that was discovered during an unlawful
search of her person in Case No. 17CR30472. The trial court
ruled that the search was unlawful but agreed with the
state’s “inevitable discovery” argument and denied defendant’s motion on that basis. The state concedes, and we
agree, that the record does not support the trial court’s ruling. Accordingly, in Case No. 17CR30472, we reverse and
remand.
Finally, in her third assignment of error, defendant
challenges the trial court’s revocation of her probation in
Case No. 14C40932. As the state acknowledges, the court
revoked defendant’s probation in that case, in part, based on
defendant’s conviction for possession of methamphetamine
in Case No. 17CR30472. The trial court did not indicate
whether it would have revoked probation in the absence of
that conviction. Therefore, we reverse and remand the probation violation judgment for the trial court to reconsider
its decision in light of our reversal in Case No. 17CR30472.

(2013)
(reversing and remanding for reconsideration a probation
violation judgment predicated in part on conviction overturned on appeal).
In Case No. 17CR43550, affirmed. In Case Nos.
17CR30472 and 14C40932, reversed and remanded.
