People v. Smiley

17 Mich. App. 351
Michigan Court of Appeals·Decided May 26, 1969·No. Docket No. 4,595·Published·Cited by 1 cases

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Defendant Donald Smiley was charged with sodomy* together with Chester Green [352] and Hosea Chappell. Green and Chappell were convicted by jury verdict and sentenced. Their convictions and sentences were affirmed by this Court on appeal in People v. Green (1968), 14 Mich App 250. Defendant waived jury trial and was convicted by the judge. His appeal raises 4 issues for appellate review, 3 of which are identical to issues raised in Green, supra. Green is dispositive of each of these 3 issues.

The remaining issue raised by defendant relates to the failure of the trial judge to give a timely jury instruction. This issue, however, has no applicability, as this was a nonjury trial.

Affirmed.
