1Opinion of the Court

MURPHY, Judge.

*198 Daniel Mylett ("Defendant") appeals from his conviction for assault on a government officer. On appeal, he contends that the trial court *199 erred by (1) denying his motion for a continuance; and (2) denying his motions to dismiss. Specifically, he argues that the trial court should have granted his motion for a continuance so that he could prepare a motion to dismiss on the basis that video footage of the assault recorded on officers' body cameras was destroyed prior to trial in violation of Brady v. Maryland , 373 U.S. 83 , 83 S.Ct. 1194 , 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963).
