James v. State
James v. State
Opinion of the Court
James appeals his conviction and sentence for uttering a forgery. His contention on appeal is that the trial court erred when it excluded a defense witnesses’ rebuttal testimony because the defense failed to disclose the name of the witness during discovery. The trial judge found that the discovery violation was intentional, and would have prejudiced the state.
Trial courts have broad discretion in making such findings,
AFFIRMED.
