STATE v. CLEMENTS

No. 10473.

765 P.2d 1195 (1988)

108 N.M. 13

STATE of New Mexico, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Tommy L. CLEMENTS, Defendant-Appellant.

Court of Appeals of New Mexico.

Certiorari Denied November 22, 1988.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jacquelyn Robins, Chief Public Defender, Linda Yen, Asst. Appellate Defender, Santa Fe, for defendant-appellant.

Hal Stratton, Atty. Gen., Margaret McLean, Asst. Atty. Gen., Santa Fe, for plaintiff-appellee.


OPINION

FRUMAN, Judge.

Defendant appeals his conviction and sentence for aggravated battery with the use of a firearm. His first issue is whether the trial court abused its discretion in proceeding with the trial in his absence. Because we reverse and remand upon our analysis of this issue, we need not consider the additional issues raised in defendant's docketing statement, his motion to amend that statement, and his brief-in-chief.
