Description
The appropriate way to raise a claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel is to seek a post-conviction hearing before
appeal. Evidence of sexual preference may be introduced only where it is relevant to the charged crime. SHORT, Judge Charles Theodore Bates was convicted of two counts of first and second degree criminal sexual conduct for acts
committed against two gymnastic students, eight-year-old C.E. and twelve-year-old J.W. On appeal, Bates argues he was denied
a fair trial due to: (1) ineffective trial counsel; (2) denial of his request for a continuance of the trial date; (3) prosecutorial
misconduct; (4) erroneous evidentiary rulings; (5) failure to instruct the jury on a lesser included crime; (6) admittance
of improperly seized evidence; and (7) upward sentencing departure. We affirm.
