Gunn v. State

Mississippi Supreme Court

1Opinion of the Court

PIERCE, Justice,

for the Court:

¶ 1. Timothy Gunn was convicted of grand larceny under Mississippi Code Section 97-17-41 in Bolivar County Circuit Court. The trial court sentenced Gunn to ten years as a habitual offender under Mississippi Code Section 99-19-81. Gunn raises three issues on appeal: (1) whether the evidence was sufficient to support the verdict; (2) whether the trial court erred in denying Gunn’s motion for a mistrial; and (3) whether the photo lineup identification was overly suggestive. Because none of these issues have merit, we affirm Gunn’s conviction and sentence.
