State v. Wing

Supreme Judicial Court of Maine

1Opinion of the Court

McKUSICK, Chief Justice.

Defendant Thomas Jeffrey Wing appeals from his Superior Court (Androscoggin County) convictions entered after a jury trial for burglary, 17-A M.R.S.A. § 401 (Supp.1980), and theft, id. § 353. Defendant asserts that his convictions should be reversed because the State failed to prove that the burglary occurred in the building alleged in the indictment and because the presiding justice erroneously refused to give a requested jury instruction concerning an absent witness. Finding no error in the Superior Court proceedings, we deny the appeal.
