No. 25038.

337 S.C. 622 (2000)

525 S.E.2d 246

The STATE of South Carolina, Petitioner, v. Richard E. COLF, Respondent.

Supreme Court of South Carolina.

Decided January 4, 2000.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Attorney General Charles M. Condon, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Charles H. Richardson, of Office of the Attorney General, of Columbia; and Solicitor Jay E. Hodge, Jr., of Darlington, for petitioner.

William B. Rogers, Jr., of Rogers & Munnerlyn, of Bennettsville, for respondent.


BURNETT, Justice:

This appeal arises out of Respondent's conviction for third degree burglary and the trial court's decision to permit the State to impeach Respondent with evidence of crimes more than ten years old. The Court of Appeals reversed. State v. Colf, 332 S.C. 313, 318, 504 S.E.2d 360, 362 (Ct.App.1998). We affirm as modified.
