P. v. Salazar
The People appeal from a trial court order dismissing the case after the court granted defendant's suppression motion. (Pen. Code, S 1538.5.) Defendant Cynthia Salazar initially responds that the appeal should be dismissed because the People attempt to appeal from a dismissal granted upon the prosecutor's motion; court disagree, and conclude the court's dismissal of the action was made by the court on its own motion. Court also find that the trial court erroneously granted defendant's suppression motion, and reverse.
