State v. McLaughlin
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine · Decided February 23, 1987 · Clifford, Glassman, McKusick, Nichols, Scolnik, Wathen
521 A.2d 300; 1987 Me. LEXIS 647 (Atlantic Reporter, Second Series)

State v. McLaughlin

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM OF DECISION.

On appeal, Lawrence A. McLaughlin, Jr. claims the prosecutor’s closing argument denied him a fair trial and challenges the legality of the sentence imposed by the Superior Court, Penobscot County, on a jury verdict finding him guilty of operating a motor vehicle after having been declared an habitual offender in violation of 29 M.R. S.A. § 2298 (Supp. 1986). Because the record discloses no merit in his first contention and because no error in the sentence imposed appears plainly on the face of the record, we affirm the judgment. State v. Blanchard, 409 A.2d 229, 233 (Me. 1979).

The entry is:

Judgment affirmed.

All concurring.
