Fox v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 6, 1982 · Booth, Mills, Thompson
417 So. 2d 842; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 28631 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Fox v. State

Opinion of the Court

MILLS, Judge.

Fox appeals his conviction for armed robbery with a deadly weapon. We affirm.

A motion to sever codefendants is addressed to the discretion of the trial judge. There was no hostility between the defenses. No abuse of discretion is revealed by the lengthy record in this case, see McCray v. State, 416 So.2d 804 (Fla. 1982); Downer v. State, 375 So.2d 840 (Fla. 1979).

No abuse of discretion was present in the failure to grant a motion for mistrial. The record does not support the contention that *843the prosecutor’s improper questioning tainted the trial.

AFFIRMED.

BOOTH and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
