Search and Seizure — reasonable suspicion — confidential informants

James A. Moten appeals a judgment, entered on a guilty plea, convicting him of possession of THC (<= 200 grams) with intent to deliver, second and subsequent offense. He contends that his motion to suppress was wrongly denied because the informant’s tip was too unreliable to give police reasonable suspicion to stop him and frisk him or to put police in a position such that the marijuana was in plain view. We disagree and affirm the judgment. This opinion will not be published.
