Legal Issues

Disposition

  • The Court of Appeals affirmed the Defendant's conviction for larceny (under $250).

Reasons

  • Per J. Miles Hanisee, with Jacqueline R. Medina and Megan P. Duffy, Judges, concurring: The Court decided to affirm the Defendant's conviction after considering her appeal and the memorandum in opposition she submitted. The Defendant's challenge was based on the sufficiency of the evidence. However, her memorandum did not identify any factual or legal errors in the Court's initial proposal to affirm the conviction. The Court referenced State v. Mondragon, which requires a party responding to a summary calendar notice to specifically point out errors of law and fact. The repetition of earlier arguments does not fulfill this requirement. Since the Defendant did not meet this standard, the Court affirmed her conviction (paras 1-2).
