JOHNSON v. STATE

No. 77-663.

361 So.2d 767 (1978)

Perry JOHNSON, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

Rehearing Denied September 6, 1978.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Elliot H. Scherker, Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before HAVERFIELD, C.J., PEARSON, J., and CRAWFORD, GRADY L. (Ret.), Associate Judge.

HAVERFIELD, Chief Judge.

Defendant, Perry Johnson, was informed against for (1) burglary, (2) attempted grand larceny, (3) battery, and (4) assault, tried by jury and found guilty on all four counts.

For his first point on appeal, Johnson argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion for mistrial where the prosecutor sought to impeach the credibility of a key defense alibi witness with evidence of prior specific criminal convictions.
