State v. Tensley

Supreme Court of Iowa

Decided January 19, 1977No. 58932PublishedCited by 26 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

HARRIS, Justice.

Defendant was charged in separate counts of a county attorney’s information with the crimes of burglary with aggravation in violation of § 708.2, The Code, and with assault with intent to commit rape in violation of § 698.4, The Code. Upon his plea of not guilty he was tried and convicted by a jury on both counts. In this appeal he challenges a pretrial ruling upon the State’s application to discover a psychological report and a trial ruling relating to jury instructions. We find both assignments to be without merit and affirm the trial court.
