State v. Whitmore

340 S.W.3d 605, 2011 Mo. App. LEXIS 510, 2011 WL 1531968

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Steven Whitmore (“Defendant”) appeals from the judgment upon his conviction by a jury of involuntary manslaughter in the first degree, Section 565.046.1, RSMo 2000, and armed criminal action, Section 571.015, RSMo 2000. Defendant asserts the trial court erred in refusing to instruct the jury on the lesser-included offense of involuntary manslaughter in the second degree.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal. We find no error of law. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order. The judgment of the motion court is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
