REESE v. STATE

No. 10750.

596 P.2d 212 (1979)

James Martin REESE, Appellant, v. STATE of Nevada, Respondent.

Supreme Court of Nevada.

June 14, 1979.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert E. Wolf, Las Vegas, for appellant.

Richard H. Bryan, Atty. Gen., Carson City, George E. Holt, Dist. Atty., and Daniel Bowman, Deputy Dist. Atty., Clark County, Las Vegas, for respondent.


OPINION

MOWBRAY, Chief Justice:

A jury found the appellant, James Martin Reese, guilty of rape and robbery with use of a deadly weapon.

He seeks reversal on several grounds that the trial judge erred in (1) admitting a jacket into evidence, (2) receiving evidence of other crimes, (3) rejecting Reese's alibi, and (4) not declaring a mistrial because a witness spoke to a juror. We deny all specifications of error and affirm.
