State v. Walker
State v. Walker
Opinion of the Court
ORDER
Terry Lee Walker (Defendant) appeals from the trial court’s judgment of conviction of attempted robbery in the first degree and resisting arrest entered after a jury trial. Defendant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his convictions. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude: (1) the trial court did not err in denying Defendant’s motions for judgment of acquittal and new trial and in entering a judgment of conviction of attempted robbery in the first degree because sufficient evidence existed from which a reasonable juror could have found beyond a reasonable doubt that Defendant threatened the immediate use of physical force upon the cashier and that Defendant displayed what appeared to be a deadly weapon when he demanded money from the cashier; and (2) the trial court did not err in denying Defendant’s motions for judgment of acquittal and new trial and in entering a judgment of conviction of resisting arrest because sufficient evidence existed from which a reasonable juror could have found beyond a reasonable doubt that, at the time Defendant fled, the pursuing police officer contemplated arresting Defendant for attempted robbery in the first degree.
