Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Scott County, Mark D. Cleve and Thomas G. Reidel, Judges. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Vaitheswaran and Schumacher, JJ. Opinion by Bower, C.J. (6 pages)
Wayne Powell appeals his convictions for third-degree burglary, third-degree theft, and possession of burglar’s tools, contending there is insufficient evidence he was the perpetrator. He also asserts the court abused its discretion in denying his motion for a new trial based on the weight of the evidence. OPINION HOLDS: Finding sufficient evidence to support the convictions and no abuse of discretion in the district court’s denial of a new trial, we affirm.
