Clifford E. Green v. United States
Opinion
Green was convicted of robbery, 22 D.C.Code § 2901 (1967), and assault *644 with intent to commit robbery, 22 D.C. Code § 501 (1967). The principal questions raised on this appeal relate to alleged trial court error in permitting the prosecutor to impeach the defendant with cross-examination respecting a prior conviction of assault and in permitting the prosecutor to impeach a defense witness with cross-examination respecting her chastity. While these issues would require serious consideration 1 if properly raised in the trial court, in the circumstances of this case we will not notice them for the first time on appeal.
Affirmed.
