People v. Duncan
People v. Duncan
Opinion of the Court
Defendant was charged under the habitual criminal act with having been convicted of four felonies. MCLA § 769.12 (Stat Ann 1954 Rev § 28. 1084). He was convicted as charged by a jury and sentenced to life imprisonment. On appeal he alleges that the evidence does not sustain the verdict
The reviewing court will not substitute its judgment for that of the jury which heard the witnesses and observed their demeanor. People v. Eagger (1966) , 4 Mich App 449; People v. Arither Thomas (1967) , 7 Mich App 103; People v. Panknin (1966), 4 Mich App 19. The jury had sufficient credible evidence before it to warrant a finding of guilty as charged beyond a reasonable doubt. It is manifest that the question presented herein is unsubstantial and, therefore, requires no argument or formal submission.
The motion to affirm is granted.
