P. v. Ring
A jury convicted Mark Alan Ring of possession of methamphetamine for sale (Health & Saf. Code, § 11378), and possession of hydrocodone (Health & Saf. Code § 11350, subdiv. (a)). Ring contends his trial attorney rendered constitutionally ineffective assistance by failing to bring a midtrial motion to suppress evidence (Pen. Code, § 1538.5, subd. (h))[1] after a police officer testified she opened his car door, which Ring asserts lacked legal justification. For the reasons expressed below, we affirm.
