Syllabus

Trial court did not err when it overruled appellant's motion to suppress. The trial court reasonably concluded that appellant indicated that he had no authority to give or deny consent to search, and the officers reasonably believed that the third-party had the authority to give such consent. Thus, the officers' warrantless search was permissible. Appellant's constitutional rights were not violated by the search conducted pursuant to the third party's consent, and he was not entitled to the suppression of the evidence obtained as a result of those searches. Judgment affirmed.
