Motion to suppress. Colquitt Superior Court. Before Judge Altman.

H. Lamar Cole, District Attorney, Charles M. Stines, Assistant District Attorney, for appellant.

Dwight H. May, James M. Bivins, for appellee.

BLACKBURN, Judge.

In State v. Carranza, 217 Ga. App. 431 ( 457 S.E.2d 699) (1995), we reversed the trial court's order which granted Miguel Carranza a/k/a Miguel Carranza Fonnacco's motion to suppress his statement and motion to suppress evidence. The Supreme Court granted certiorari and affirmed our decision in part and reversed it in part. Carranza v. State, 266 Ga. 263 ( 467 S.E.2d 315) (1996). The Supreme Court determined that the trial court properly granted the motion to suppress with regard to the evidence but that the motion to suppress was improperly granted with regard to Carranza's statement. Accordingly, our judgment in this case is vacated and the judgment of the Supreme Court is made the judgment of this Court.

Judgment affirmed in part and reversed in part. McMurray, P.J., and Andrews, J., concur.

BLACKBURN, Judge.
