Supreme Court of Hawaii.

December 4, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William H. Feldhacker, Kalaheo, for defendant-appellant.

Stuart S. Spring, Deputy Pros. Atty., Honolulu, for plaintiff-appellee.

Before LUM, C.J., and PADGETT, HAYASHI, WAKATSUKI and MOON, JJ.


LUM, Chief Justice.

The Affidavit which provided the basis for the search warrant specified the exact bedroom of a member where contraband transactions occurred. The search warrant, however, authorized a search of the entire residence.
