Carter v. State

Indiana Court of Appeals

OPINION

MAY, Judge.

Gregory Carter appeals his conviction of Class D felony theft 1 and Class B felony robbery resulting in bodily injury. 2 He raises three issues for our consideration:

1. Did the trial court abuse its discretion when excluding evidence of Wal-Mart's standard operating procedures for detaining shoplifters?

Did some of the prosecutor's comments during voir dire rise to the level of misconduct resulting in fundamental error?

Did Carter's convictions of theft and robbery subject him to double jeopardy under the Indiana Constitution?

We affirm in part and reverse in part.
