| Issues: |
Appellant's Statement of the Issues: I. Whether the trial court erred in denying Defendant's rule 29 motion because, as a matter of law, there was insufficient evidence on which to find Defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. II. Whether the judgment should be reversed because the guilty verdict on the charge of leaving the scene of an accident involving death is not supported by the evidence. III. Whether the judgment on the charge of leaving the scene of an accident involving death should be reversed because it is inconsistent with the rest of the jury's decision. IV. Whether the conviction for leaving the scene of an accident involving death should be reversed because the trial court committed obvious error in the instructions defining the crime and its elements and this error substantially prejudiced the rights of the defendant. Appellee's Statement of the Issues: I.The trial court was correct in denying Defendant's Rule 29 motion, there was sufficient evidence to find Defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt II.Judgment should be upheld because there was sufficient evidence for the jury to find Jacob guilty of leaving the scene of an accident causing death. III.The judgment should be upheld because the jury's verdict was not inconsistent. IV.The trial court properly instructed the jury in defining the crime and its elements so there was no prejudice to Jacob' rights. | ||||||
