Description
Defendants (Appellants) were jointly tried in a trial by jury and each was convicted of Robbery, a Class A Felony. Ind. Code § 35-42-5-1 (Burns 1979). Defendant-Morgan was sentenced to a term of forty (40) years imprisonment, while Defendant-Holland was sentenced to a term of fifty (50) years imprisonment. Although the defendants' direct appeals have been separately briefed, they present substantially the same issues: (1) Whether the trial court erred in denying the defendants' motions for separate trials; (2) Whether the trial court erred in excusing a prospective juror; (3) Whether the trial court erred in denying the defendants' motions for a mistrial; (4) Whether the trial court erred in giving certain final instructions; (5) Whether the trial court erred in refusing one of Defendants' tendered instructions; and (6) Whether the sentences were excessive and irrational when compared to the sentences awarded the defendants' accomplices.
