State v. Tirado

Supreme Court of Connecticut

Decided July 31, 1984No. 12203PublishedCited by 40 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtSpeziale, C. J.

The defendant, Emisael Tirado, was convicted by a jury of the crimes of robbery in the first degree, General Statutes § 53a-134 (a) (3), and assault in the first degree, General Statutes § 53a-59 (a) (1). He has appealed from the judgment claiming that: (1) he was denied effective assistance of counsel by defense counsel’s failure to subpoena certain out-of-state alibi witnesses pursuant to General Statutes § 54-82i (c); and (2) the trial court erred in refusing to poll the jury after one juror stated he felt “uncomfortable” in deciding the case. We find no error.
