Decided April 7, 1981PublishedCited by 68 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtArthur H. Healey, J.
After a trial to a jury, the defendant was found guilty of manslaughter in the first degree in violation of General Statutes § 53a-55 (a) (1). The defendant has appealed from the judgment rendered upon the verdict, pressing six claims of error. She contends that the trial court erred (1) in denying her motions for acquittal; (2) in excluding evidence of the victim’s prior convictions; (3) in its questioning of a witness; (4) in denying her motion for a new trial; (5) in permitting the introduction into evidence of an autopsy photograph; and (6) in denying her motion to dismiss.
