JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Constitutionality of searches.

- There was no constitutional offense in a state revenue agent and local law enforcement officers coordinating and consolidating their efforts to enforce O.C.G.A. § 3-2-31 which authorizes such cooperation to conduct an administrative search for violations of the Georgia Alcoholic Beverage Code in conjunction with executing arrest warrants for previously observed violations of these laws.
