State v. McClendon
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided June 30, 2015 · Cohen, III, Richter
467 S.W.3d 395; 2015 Mo. App. LEXIS 693; 2015 WL 3959966 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

State v. McClendon

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Corey McClendon (Defendant) appeals from the judgment of conviction entered by the Circuit Court of St. Louis County after a jury found him guilty of two counts of forcible sodomy and one count of kidnapping. Defendant claims that the trial court erred in: (1) denying his motion for a mistrial during the prosecutor’s cross-examination of Defendant; and (2) failing to sua sponte declare a mistrial during the prosecutor’s closing argument.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude that the trial court did not err. An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion only for the use of the parties setting forth the reasons for our decision.

We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 30.25(b).
