Opinions
OPINION
We have granted review in these cases, limited to the question of “whether a trial court may give, over the criminal defendant’s objection, a ‘transition’ instruction that the jurors must unanimously find the defendant not guilty of a greater offense before they may render a verdict on whether he is guilty of any lesser included offense.” The court of appeals answered this question in the affirmative. We agree for the reasons stated by the court of appeals in Dresnek v. State, 697 P.2d 1059 (Alaska App.1985).
AFFIRMED.
