State v. Lekin

Supreme Court of Iowa

1Opinion of the Court

McCORMICK, Justice.

Defendant appeals his conviction and sentence for assault with intent to inflict great bodily injury in violation of § 690.6, The Code, 1975. The only question he raises is whether the testimony of an alleged accomplice was corroborated. We find sufficient corroboration and therefore affirm on defendant’s appeal.

The State cross-appeals from an order sustaining a demurrer to two additional counts in the county attorney’s information by which defendant was charged. We find the State’s cross-appeal is untimely and therefore dismiss it.
