1Opinion of the Court

STATON, Judge.

John Morrison appeals his conviction for battery resulting in serious bodily injury, a Class C felony. 1 Morrison presents four arguments for our review which are as follows:

I. Whether the trial court erred in failing to hold a hearing on defendant's motion for change of venue from the judge.

II. Whether the trial court erred in limiting the scope of defendant's cross-examination of the victim.

III. Whether the defendant received effective assistance of counsel.

IV. Whether the State sufficiently rebutted Morrison's claim of self-defense.

We affirm.

On August 8, 1991, Darren Morrison…
