No. 1 CA-CR 07-0475.

189 P.3d 1107 (2008)

STATE of Arizona, Appellee, v. Jamal Deshuan MOORE, Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Arizona, Division 1, Department S.

June 24, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Terry Goddard, Attorney General by Randall M. Howe, Chief Counsel, Criminal Appeals Section and Jessica L. Quickle, Assistant Attorney General, Phoenix, Attorneys for Appellee.

Michael J. Dew, Attorney at Law by Michael J. Dew, Phoenix, Attorneys for Appellant.


GEMMILL, Chief Judge.

¶ 1 Defendant Jamal Deshuan Moore was convicted of first-degree felony murder and attempted first-degree felony murder. On appeal, he challenges only his conviction for attempted felony murder, arguing that there is no such offense under Arizona law. We agree that attempted felony murder is not a cognizable offense in Arizona, and we therefore vacate Moore's conviction and sentence for this non-existent offense.
