GUNN, Judge.

Defendant-Appellant was convicted of manslaughter. His appeal alleges the following errors: (1) that there was insufficient evidence to support the conviction; (2) that he was improperly limited to six rather than twelve peremptory challenges; (3) that a voluntary intoxication instruction should not have been given; (4) that he was improperly restricted in cross-examination of a state’s witness who was on probation; (5) that he was wrongly denied the minutes of the grand jury proceedings by which he was indicted. We affirm.
