Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia.

March 19, 1987.

PER CURIAM:

The defendant, James Irvin Hamilton, appeals his conviction in the Circuit Court of Wood County of the offense of breaking and entering. The defendant's primary error is the claim that he was impeached by his post-arrest silence in violation of State v. Oxier, ___ W.Va. ___, 338 S.E.2d 360 (1985). We disagree and we affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
