Reed v. United States

District of Columbia Court of Appeals

1Opinion of the Court

MYERS, Associate Judge.

Following a nonjury trial, appellant was convicted of petit larceny. 1 He challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the finding of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Our review of the record convinces us that there is no merit to this contention.

Appellant also charges that the offense of which he was convicted was not the same offense charged in the information because the evidence failed to show a trespass, which is an element of the offense of larceny. He suggests, however, that the same evidence might sustain a conviction of larceny after trust. 2
