Singletary v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 22, 1983 · Barkdull, Hendry, Nesbitt
428 So. 2d 355; 1983 Fla. App. LEXIS 20265 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Singletary v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was charged by information with burglary and grand theft. He was found guilty by a jury of trespass, as a lesser included offense of burglary. As to the grand theft count, he was found not guilty. He was adjudicated guilty of trespass and sentenced to a one year term of imprisonment.

Reversal is sought on the ground that the trial court erred in overruling defense counsel’s objection to a police technician’s testimony that the appellant’s fingerprints were obtained from him at the jail. Appellant argues that such statement to the jury deprived him of a fair and impartial trial.

We find no merit in this contention, and affirm. Parrish v. State, 366 So.2d 530 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979), and cases cited.

Affirmed.
