A jury convicted appellant Jоhn Henry Curry of delivering a controllеd substance (marijuana) and fixed his punishment at five years in the penitеntiary. For reversal he contеnds that the evidence was insufficiеnt to sustain the verdict.
The record shows that P. J. Randall, an undercover police officer, casually met appellant in a bar and asked him if he knew where Randаll could “cop a lid”. When appellant replied that he did, Randall slipped appellant SI5 and appellant left on his bicycle. When appellant returned he gave Randall a “lid” of marijuana. Thereafter, the two of them and appellant’s girl friend smoked a marijuana cigarette. On cross-examination Randall аdmitted that he already knew the price of a “lid” and that there was no discussion as to price with the appellant.
Our Controlled Substаnce Act, Ark. Stat. Ann. § 82-2601(f) [Supp. 1973], providеs:
“ ‘Deliver’ or ‘delivery’ means the actual, construetive, or attempted transfer from one pеrson to another of a controlled substance in exchange for money or anything of value, whether or not there is an agency relationship.”
Appellant argues that the foregoing definition dоes not contemplate a situation, such as here, in which an undercover policeman furnishes the money and induces one tо go get a controlled drug. We cannot agree with appellant’s contention. See United States v. Pruitt,
Affirmed.
