State v. Price
State v. Price
Opinion of the Court
Appeal from a jury conviction of stealing over $150, § 570.030, RSMo 1986, for which defendant was sentenced to fifteen years’ imprisonment as a persistent offender. We affirm.
The defendant asserts the trial court erred in accepting two prior convictions as evidence of her being a persistent offender, because the transcripts of those convictions showed one was for Helen P. Price and the other was for Helen Patricia Price. As in State v. McBurnett, 694 S.W.2d 769, 771[1] (Mo.App. 1985), the prior convictions of Helen P. Price and Helen Patricia Price made a prima facie case for the State. Additionally, defendant took the stand and admitted to these convictions. Id. at 771—72[2].
For her second point, defendant states: The Court erred in accepting the verdict of the jury because the State failed to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt and the verdict was against the greater weight of evidence.
This point does not present a statement of wherein and why the action taken by the trial court would be erroneous as required by Rule 30.06(d). State v. Sanders, 714 S.W.2d 578, 587[10] (Mo.App. 1986).
Judgment affirmed.
