Geiger v. State

Wyoming Supreme Court

Decided September 21, 1993No. 92-48PublishedCited by 34 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

TAYLOR, Justice.

Mary Geiger (Geiger) appeals from a conviction of attempted first-degree murder and a sentence of life in the Wyoming Women’s Center. Geiger asserts that the trial court violated the Wyoming Rules of Evidence by admitting irrelevant and prejudicial testimony, and argues there was insufficient evidence to convict her of attempted first-degree murder. We affirm Geiger’s conviction and sentence.

Geiger presents these issues:
