CALHOUN v. STATE

No. 92-03140.

627 So.2d 60 (1993)

Bennie F. CALHOUN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

November 17, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Robert D. Rosen, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Dell H. Edwards, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


PATTERSON, Judge.

Bennie Calhoun challenges his judgment and sentences for possession of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia. He argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence. We agree and reverse since the police did not have probable cause to search Calhoun merely because he came out of an apartment which was the subject of a search warrant.
