P. v. Harden CA2/4
Appellant Michael Harden appeals from a 23-year prison sentence following his convictions for first degree residential robbery and misdemeanor possession of a smoking device. He contends he was denied a fair trial due to assertedly inadmissible evidence of prior bad acts. Specifically, he contends that the trial court should have given an instruction limiting admissibility of the evidence, that his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to seek a mistrial or curative instruction, and that the court failed to conduct an adequate hearing to determine whether any juror overheard a conversation between witnesses relating to prior bad acts. For the reasons set forth below, we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm.
