Description
Appellant, Alfred Lavorice Brown, appeals the judgment of the Pulaski County Circuit Court convicting him of second-degree sexual assault and sentencing him as a habitual offender to imprisonment for 276 months. On appeal, Appellant argues the trial court erred in denying his motions for directed verdict and continuance. The Arkansas Court of Appeals issued a three division, 5-4 opinion finding there was sufficient evidence to support the judgment but that the trial court erred in denying Appellants motion for a continuance. Brown v. State, 100 Ark. App. 172, ___ S.W.3d ___ (2007). The court of appeals accordingly reversed and remanded for a new trial. The State then petitioned this court for review of the court of appeals decision, contending it is inconsistent with our prior case law on issues that are in need of clarification. We granted the States petition for review pursuant to Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 1-2(e). When we grant review of a decision by the court of appeals, we review the case as though the appeal was originally filed in this court. Yarbrough v. State, 370 Ark. 31, 257 S.W.3d 50 (2007). Upon such review, we find no error and affirm the judgment of conviction.
