1. “"When the State relies upon consent to justify a search and seizure of evidence to incriminate, the consent must be given under circumstances to justify a waiver of known rights. This is not a matter that can be presumed, but the State had the burden of proving that the consent or waiver was given voluntarily without inducement or coercion and with knowledge of the right to refuse the request to search. . . ." (Citations omitted.)”

2. ““Testimony was offered by the State outside the presence of the jury on the question of consent to search. At the conclusion of the testimony offered by the State on this question, the attorney for the appellant requested permission of the court to examine the appellant in rebuttal to the State’s testimony. The request was refused by the court and proper objection and exception taken by the appellant to this action. In this respect the court committed reversible error.””
