OPINION

STEWART, Judge.

Thomas Ward appeals his conviction for third-degree assault.1 He claims that the superior court erred by selecting a jury in Fairbanks rather than renewing its unsuccessful efforts to select a jury in Fort Yukon. Ward also claims that he acted in self-defense and that the court erred by not instructing the jury on that defense. We reject both of Ward's claims and affirm.
