Perkins v. State

WAYMOND M. BROWN, Judge

APPEAL FROM THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT
[NO. CR-14-26] HONORABLE JERRY RYAN, JUDGE AFFIRMED WAYMOND M. BROWN, Judge

Appellant Andrew Perkins was found guilty of possession of drug paraphernalia (methamphetamines) and misdemeanor public intoxication by a Montgomery County jury. He was sentenced to twelve years' imprisonment on the possession charge and was fined $100 for public intoxication.

Perkins argues on appeal that the trial court abused its discretion by not granting him a continuance after voir dire. When the only issue is whether the trial court abused its discretion, we may affirm by memorandum opinion. We have examined the parties' briefs and the applicable law, and we find no abuse of discretion by the trial court in denying the continuance. We therefore affirm by memorandum opinion.

Affirmed.

GRUBER and GLOVER, JJ., agree.

Justin B. Hurst, for appellant.
