He argued the State failed to prove the requisite mental state for armed criminal action, that the trial court erred in denying a continuance after a late discovery disclosure, and that evidence of a post-crash sign change was improperly excluded. The appellate court affirmed all convictions and sentences, finding sufficient evidence for the armed criminal action charge and no abuse of discretion or plain error on the other points.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=221235","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-respondent-v-daniel-riley-appellant-112614","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":40,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: felony"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
