Commonwealth v. Velez

103 N.E.3d 765, 92 Mass. App. Ct. 1130
Massachusetts Appeals Court·Decided March 5, 2018·No. 16–P–1094·Published

Opinion

The defendant, Randy A. Velez, appeals from his convictions of violation of an abuse prevention order and assault and battery on a household member. On direct appeal, the defendant makes no argument of trial error. Accordingly, the judgments are affirmed.

The only issue briefed by the defendant is that a judge of the District Court abused his discretion in denying a posttrial motion for funds for additional investigative work prepatory to the filing of a motion for new trial. The defendant has filed no appeal from the denial of the motion, and consequently there is no matter before us to act upon.

Judgments affirmed.
