He said police didn’t have a valid search warrant when they allegedly found cocaine and marijuana at his home in 2008.
But a judge ruled the warrant was valid and Pierson is to stand trial on trafficking charges sometime in April.
He also faces charges stemming from a separate drug raid last year.
Winnipeg’s Most has won multiple Aboriginal Music Awards, including best group in 2011.
