P. v. Evans CA1/2
Appellant Lance Edwin Evans was convicted, following a jury trial, of two counts of evading a peace officer, driving under the influence of alcohol, driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08 percent or greater, driving without a valid driver’s license, and resisting a peace officer. On appeal, he contends (1) the trial court erred when it denied his motion for a mistrial based on a police officer’s use of the irrelevant and inflammatory word “hostage” during his testimony; (2) substantial evidence does not support any of his convictions; and (3) the court should have held an evidentiary hearing to address his claim of bailiff misconduct. We shall affirm the judgment.
