OPINION

MOWBRAY, Justice.

This appeal challenges the validity of a warrantless search of Appellant Derouen's apartment that was made contemporaneously with Derouen's arrest, on the grounds that the search was in derogation of constitutional rights guaranteed under the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution.
