1Opinion of the Court

CLECKLEY, Justice:

The defendant below and appellant herein, Charles Omechinski, appeals from his conviction of six counts of cruelty to animals. The defendant contends the trial court committed reversible error when it allowed a defense witness to testify as a rebuttal witness for the prosecution after the witness discussed her testimony with another witness and the prosecutor in violation of a sequestration order. We find no reversible error and, therefore, we affirm the defendant’s conviction.
