    State v. Gehring

    No. 20000114

      

    Per Curiam.

    [¶1] Brian Gehring appeals from the trial court's order denying suppression of evidence and its criminal judgment of conviction entered on a Rule 11(a)(2), N.D.R.Crim.P., conditional guilty plea to possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.  We will not reverse a trial court's decision to deny a suppression motion if sufficient competent evidence supports the court's findings, and the decision is not contrary to the manifest weight of the evidence.   State v. Schmidt , 1998 ND 22, 576 N.W.2d 524 (N.D. 1998).   We hold the trial court's findings of fact and decision are supported by the evidence.

    [¶2] We affirm the trial court's order and judgment under Rule 35.1(a)(2), N.D.R.App.P.
