Syllabus

Criminal law — Search/Seizure — Plea. The trial court did not err denying appellant's motion to suppress evidence because the search did not violate her constitutional rights. Appellant's voluntary disclaimer/denial of the evidence constituted abandonment and forfeited her expectation of privacy. The trial court erred by not strictly complying with Crim.R. 11(C)(2)(c), because the trial court failed to advise on the right to a jury and misstated the burden of proof. Consequently, appellant's no contest plea was invalid.
