Facts

  • The Defendant was convicted following a jury trial. The specific events leading to these convictions are not detailed in the provided text.

Procedural History

  • Appeal from the District Court of Valencia County: The Defendant's convictions were affirmed.

Parties' Submissions

  • Appellant: The Defendant opposed the Court's proposed disposition to affirm the convictions, relying on the facts and arguments contained within his first memorandum in opposition. The Defendant did not intend to file a second memorandum containing additional facts or argument (para 1).
  • Appellee: [Not applicable or not found]

Legal Issues

  • Whether the Defendant's second memorandum in opposition presented any new facts, laws, or arguments that could persuade the Court that the proposed dispositions to affirm the convictions were erroneous (para 2).

Disposition

  • The Court of Appeals affirmed the Defendant's convictions (para 3).

Reasons

  • Per J. Miles Hanisee, Chief Judge (Jacqueline R. Medina, Judge, and Megan P. Duffy, Judge, concurring):
    The Court remained unpersuaded by the Defendant's second memorandum in opposition, noting that it did not assert any new facts, laws, or arguments beyond those already considered. The Court referenced State v. Mondragon and Hennessy v. Duryea to emphasize that the burden is on the party opposing the proposed disposition to clearly point out errors in fact or law. The repetition of earlier arguments did not fulfill this requirement. Therefore, for the reasons stated in the first and second notices of proposed disposition and herein, the Court affirmed the Defendant's convictions (paras 1-2).
