Opinion
This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court. Opinion Missouri Court of Appeals Eastern District Case Style: State of Missouri, Plaintiff/Respondent, v. Douglas Floyd, Defendant/Appellant. Douglas Floyd, Movant, v. State of Missouri, Respondent. Case Number: Nos. 68897/70907 Handdown Date: 07/15/1997 Appeal From: Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, Hon. Daniel T. Tillman Counsel for Appellant: Deborah Wafer Counsel for Respondent: Fernando Bermudez, Assistant Attorney General Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: Per Curiam Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. Crane, P.J., and Smith and Pudlowski, JJ., concur. Opinion: Please substitute the attached order dated 8-12-97 for the order handed down on July 15, 1997. This substitution does not constitute a new opinion. Defendant Douglas Floyd was found guilty after a jury trial of murder in the first degree, Section 562.020 RSMo
- The trial court sentenced defendant to a term of life imprisonment without probation and parole. From that
judgment defendant untimely filed a direct appeal. Subsequently, he filed his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief. The motion was denied without an evidentiary hearing. Defendant timely filed his appeal of the denial of his motion. Defendant's direct appeal is denied and judgment affirmed. Rule 30.25(b). We find the motion court's judgment is based on findings that are not clearly erroneous and the evidence in support of the jury verdict is not insufficient. No error of law appears and an opinion would serve no precedential value. The judgment is affirmed in accordance with Rule 84.16(b). Separate Opinion:
None This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court.
