Clifford Mac Ritter v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Ritter’s motion to suppress evidence seized from his residence under a warrant that incorrectly identified the address and residence name. It held that, considering the affidavit, the officers’ personal knowledge, surveillance of the intended premises, and the fact that the intended residence was searched, the warrant described the place to be searched with sufficient particularity. The court also applied de novo review and concluded that the ruling was not against the preponderance of the evidence.
