October 10, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John Adams Moore, Jr., Yakima, for Appellant.

Bruce Hanify, Deputy Prosecuting Attorney, Yakima, for Respondent.


THOMPSON, Judge.

After failing once to cut off his injured leg with a chain saw, Benjamin R. Hull tried to shoot it off with a shotgun, and then accepted state Department of Labor and Industries (L & I) benefits for the injury. He appeals his conviction for L & I fraud, contending primarily that the court's instructions failed to include necessary elements of or defenses to the crime. We agree and reverse.
