People v Reynolds

Holding The court affirmed the convictions, finding that the search warrants satisfied the Aguilar-Spinelli test for probable cause despite the defendant’s hearsay objections. Additionally, the court determined that the defendant’s waiver of the right to appeal in the second appeal was invalid, though his specific challenges to the indictment were unpreserved.
