Search and Seizure — reasonable expectation of privacy — guests

Adrian J. Jackson appeals a judgment convicting him after a guilty plea of possession of cocaine with intent to deliver as a party to a crime, second or subsequent offense. Jackson argues: (1) that the circuit court erred in ruling that he did not have standing to bring a suppression motion; and (2) that the circuit court should have ordered the State to disclose how the police tracked him to the apartment where he was arrested. We conclude that Jackson had standing to bring his suppression motion and that the police must disclose how they tracked Jackson to the apartment if the information is relevant to whether Jackson’s rights under the Fourth Amendment were violated. We reverse the judgment of conviction and remand for further proceedings. This opinion will not be published.
