P. v. Melgard
After a day and a half jury trial in which he personally testified, appellant was convicted on both drug-related counts in the charging information. He appeals claiming (1) the trial court erred in permitting the prosecutor to impeach him on cross-examination by confronting him with a prior drug-related conviction and (2) his trial counsel was ineffective because, during the course of cross examination of a prosecution drug expert, a question by that counsel adduced evidence of appellants prior drug convictions. Court reject both arguments and affirm the judgment of conviction.
