John R. Dean, pro se.
Robert E. Keller, Dist. Atty., Michael D. Anderson, Asst. Dist. Atty., for appellee.
Appellant entered a plea of guilty to two counts of burglary in Case No. 58369 and to one count of burglary in Case No. 58370. He originally received a Youthful Offender sentence which he began to serve at the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Center. He subsequently petitioned to have his sentence vacated and set aside and that he be sentenced instead to serve at the New Life Restitution Center, a half way house in which the residents, under sentence, may obtain outside work and return home for periodic visits but who must otherwise stay at the Center. Appellant's petition stated that Appellant's original sentence was vacated and he received four years probation with the special condition that he serve the first year at the Center. It was further ordered that he "must comply with all rules and regulations of the New Life Restitution Center, and that any violation of these rules and regulations will constitute a violation of Sentence of Probation."
The Center's rules and regulations, which appellant had admitted reading and with which he had agreed to comply under possible penalty of probation revocation and to which specific reference had been made in his probated sentence, stated:
The Center director requested Clayton County police officers to enter the facility and conduct one of the periodic "shake down" searches referred to in the rules and regulations of the Center. At that time, officers discovered marijuana on appellant's person. On the basis of this search and seizure of the drugs, appellant was charged with violating the terms of his probation. His motion to suppress was denied and his probation revoked. He appeals, enumerating as error the denial of his suppression motion.
