Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles W. Lahey, South Bend, for appellant-defendant.

Linley E. Pearson, Atty. Gen., Gary Damon Secrest, Deputy Atty. Gen., Indianapolis, for appellee-plaintiff.


STATON, Judge.

Noel Williams was convicted by a jury of Rape, a class B felony and Confinement, a class D felony.

Williams claims that his constitutional rights were violated because the State used its peremptory challenges to remove members of his race from the venire.
