California Court of Appeal

Judgment entered following no contest plea to cultivation of marijuana is affirmed over claims that: 1) the disqualification of the judge who initially denied defendant's Penal Code section 1538.5 motion to suppress voids that denial and entitles defendant to a de novo section 1538.5 hearing; and 2) the trial court erroneously denied the section 1538.5 motion.
