PEOPLE v. HART (AFT REM)
Michigan Court of Appeals.
Mar 4, 1988
AFTER REMAND
PER CURIAM.
In our previous opinion in this case, reported at 161 Mich. App. 630; 411 N.W.2d 803 (1987), we remanded the case to the trial court, directing it to apply the standard of Batson v Kentucky, 476 U.S. 79; 106 S Ct 1712; 90 L Ed 2d 69 (1986), to defendant's equal protection claim regarding the alleged intentional exclusion of black veniremen by the prosecution.
On remand and following a hearing on the issue, the trial court ruled that defendant failed to make out a prima facie case of discrimination as required by Batson, supra. We find sufficient record support for the trial court's findings and, therefore, find no abuse of discretion.
Affirmed.
