Lynn v. State

Court of Criminal Appeals of Alabama

Decided January 22, 1980PublishedCited by 10 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

The defendant was indicted and convicted for the robbery of Willie L. Boswell. Sentence was fifty years' imprisonment.

I

The testimony of the victim presented clear and unequivocal evidence of each of the three elements of the crime of robbery.Baker v. State, 344 So.2d 547, 549 (Ala.Cr.App. 1977). His testimony alone was sufficient to authorize the submission of the issue of the defendant's guilt or innocence to the jury. If believed, his testimony would support a conviction for robbery.Arnold v. State, 348 So.2d 1092, 1097 (Ala.Cr.App.), cert. denied, 348 So.2d 1097 (Ala. 1977).
