State v. Mugrage
| 2020-P-0066 | CRIMINAL - trial court did not fail to strike juror where there was no demonstration of bias or impartiality; motions in limine appropriately denied, other-acts evidence inextricably linked to crime, any error harmless; sufficient evidence as to element of sexual contact, touching does not have to be skin to skin; delayed reporting of witnesses goes to credibility of witnesses, whom jury was free to believe; counsel was not ineffective for failing to object to having trial during COVID; trial court answered jury question with accurate statement of law; assignment of error regarding whether trial court correctly denied motion for new trial is moot since assignments of error based on the same reasons, i.e. COVID and improper other-acts evidence, were found to be without merit. | Trapp | Portage |
