575 S.W.2d 863 (1978)

STATE of Missouri, Plaintiff-Respondent, v. Jewell WILLIAMS, Defendant-Appellant.

Missouri Court of Appeals, Kansas City District.

December 27, 1978.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jeffery L. Alena, Gepford & Sears, Kansas City, for defendant-appellant.

John D. Ashcroft, Atty. Gen., Jill Whitley, Asst. Atty. Gen., Jefferson City, for plaintiff-respondent.

Before SOMERVILLE, P. J., and DIXON and TURNAGE, JJ.


DIXON, Judge.

Defendant appeals her conviction for possession of a Schedule II controlled substance. Defendant raises a narrowly circumscribed issue concerning the seizure of the controlled substance and a claim of plain error in the failure of the prosecutor to make an opening statement in the bench trial.

The first issue, the claim of error with respect to the denial of defendant's motion to suppress, is upon a very narrow ground.
