State v. Britt

MOORE, Justice.

Defendant first contends that the trial court erred in failing to allow into evidence the blood alcohol level of the deceased. Defendant admits that the autopsy report and related reports (including a toxicology report) identified by Dr. Marvin Thompson, an expert in pathology, were not offered into evidence at trial by either the State or defendant. Defendant only assigns as error the failure of the court to allow the oral testimony of Dr. Thompson relating to the blood alcohol level of the deceased.
