State v. Wimbley
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed Defendant's convictions of two counts of felony murder, criminal discharge of a firearm at an occupied dwelling, and criminal discharge at an occupied vehicle, holding that Defendant failed to establish error.
On appeal, Defendant argued that the trial judge erred by not giving his requested and legally correct language to a pattern jury instruction. The Supreme Court disagreed and affirmed Defendant's convictions, holding that, even without the language requested by Defendant, the jury instructions properly and fairly stated the applicable law and did not mislead the jury.
