Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Feb 6, 2020
STATE OF MISSOURI, Plaintiff-Respondent v. LARRY A. SINOR, Defendant-Appellant
Larry A. Sinor appealed his conviction for careless and imprudent driving, which stemmed from a collision where his semi-tractor struck a farm tractor, resulting in a fatality. Sinor requested plain error review, arguing the trial court should have sua sponte intervened to exclude parts of the State's expert witness testimony. The appellate court denied the requests for plain error review, declining to exercise its discretion, and affirmed the trial court's judgment of conviction.
