State v. Clarke
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM DECISION.
Defendant appeals from a District Court conviction of the offense of theft (17-A M.R.S.A. §§ 353, 362(5) (1983)). Defendant’s sole contention on appeal is that the evidence is insufficient to support the conviction. In reviewing defendant’s challenge, we are required to view the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution. State v. Smith, 456 A.2d 1 (Me.1983). We may reverse the conviction only if we find that no trier of fact could have rationally found guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. State v. Crosby, 456 A.2d 369, 370 (Me.1983).
