525 S.W.2d 96

State v. Hoskin

Missouri Court of Appeals

Decided June 11, 1975

Missouri Court of Appeals · decided 1975-06-11

Relies on State v. Booker

Decided 1975-06-11

PER CURIAM.

¶1Appellant Ronald Hoskin was convicted by a Phelps County jury of tampering with a motor vehicle [§ 560.175, RSMo 1969, V.A. M.S.] and sentenced to a two-year prison term. He seeks reversal of the judgment contending the verdict of the jury is against the weight of the evidence and his trial was prejudicially tainted by prosecutorial misconduct.

¶2A challenge to the weight of the evidence presents no reviewable issue. State v. Booker, 503 S.W.2d 76 (Mo.App. 1973). Treating appellant’s point as being directed to the sufficiency of the evidence, we have carefully read the trial transcript and find the evidence in support of the jury’s verdict sufficient to sustain appellant’s conviction.

¶3Appellant’s complaints regarding the prosecuting attorney are not supported by the record, and we conclude appellant had a fair and impartial trial.

¶4No error of law appears and an opinion would have no precedential value.

¶5Judgment affirmed pursuant to Rule 84.-16(b), V.A.M.R.

All concur.
