Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Geoffrey A. Rivers, Muncie, for appellant.

Linley E. Pearson, Atty. Gen., Michael Gene Worden, Deputy Atty. Gen., Indianapolis, for appellee.

GIVAN, Justice.

A jury trial in 1984 resulted in a mistrial. A second jury trial in 1984 resulted in appellant's conviction of Second Degree Murder, Ind. Code Ann. § 10-3404 (Burns 1905) [repealed 1977], for which she received a sentence of life imprisonment. This Court reversed her conviction in 1986 because the trial court erroneously prevented two defense witnesses from testifying. Patterson v. State (1986), Ind., 495 N.E.2d 714
