Christopher Gribbins v. Commonwealth of Kentucky

OPINION OF THE COURT BY

JUSTICE HUGHES

Christopher Gribbins appeals as a matter of right from a judgment of the Marion Circuit Court sentencing him to twenty years’ imprisonment for murder. Ky. Const. § 110(2)(b). Gribbins alleges that the jury instructions inaccurately presented the law of self-protection and that the combination instruction for intentional and wanton murder resulted in a non-unanimous verdict. Additionally, Gribbins alleges that the trial court erred in denying his motion for directed verdict. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment and sentence of the Marion Circuit Court.
