No. 2009-KA-00517-COA.

46 So.3d 835 (2010)

Charles ANDERSON, Appellant v. STATE of Mississippi, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Mississippi.

October 19, 2010.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John T. Kitchens , Leslie S. Lee , Katharine McKee Surkin , Jackson, Joseph Leonard Turney , Thomas Eugene Whitfield Jr. , attorneys for appellant.

Office of the Attorney General by Ladonna C. Holland , attorney for appellee.

Before KING, C.J., GRIFFIS and ISHEE, JJ.

ISHEE, J., for the Court:

¶ 1. Charles Anderson was convicted of manslaughter. The Circuit Court of Lamar County sentenced him to twenty years in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC). He now appeals and asserts: (1) the trial court erred in granting the State's jury instruction S-7, and (2) the "castle doctrine" should be applied retroactively to his case. Finding no error, we affirm Anderson's conviction and sentence.
