072411P.pdf   07/24/2008  United States  v.  Calvin James
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-2411
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Bye and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in finding
   defendant had abandoned his motel room before the police made an
   initial entry into the room; evidence seized during a second entry and
   warrantless search was admissible; search of a separate room was not
   tainted by the search of the abandoned room; court would not review
   second search on a ground not raised in the trial court as defendant had
   offered neither convincing arguments nor authority to support the
   challenge.
