Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Linn County, Fae Hoover Grinde, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Buller, P.J., Langholz, J., and Bower, S.J. Opinion by Bower, S.J. (14 pages)
John Sanders appeals his convictions for assault causing bodily injury, assault with intent to commit serious injury, and two counts of second-degree robbery. Sanders challenges the sufficiency of the evidence supporting his convictions and the marshaling instruction on second-degree robbery. Sanders further claims the court erred by denying his motion to continue sentencing and by failing to ensure a valid waiver of his right to testify. OPINION HOLDS: Upon our review, we affirm.
