Appeal from the District Court of Burleigh County, South Central Judicial District, the Honorable Gail Hagerty, Judge.



AFFIRMED.



Per Curiam.

State v. Hoffer

No. 20160040



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Noah Hoffer appealed from an order deferring imposition of his sentence entered after he entered a conditional guilty plea to conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia, reserving the right to appeal the denial of his motion to suppress.  Hoffer argues that probable cause plus an exception to the warrant requirement was necessary to justify law enforcement’s warrantless seizure of personal property, a backpack in this case.  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2), (3), and (7).
