United States Eighth Circuit

Defendant's conviction for possession with intent to distribute fifty grams or more of a substance containing methamphetamine is affirmed where: 1) because the officer had probable cause to believe that defendant possessed marijuana in violation of Nebraska law, defendant's arrest did not violate the Fourth Amendment; and 2) the search was a valid search incident to arrest.
