Description
In four indictments, the defendant Allan James Zyla, was charged with grand larceny, receiving stolen property, and concealing stolen property. He was found guilty of receiving stolen property as charged in one count of one of the indictments (No. 10494) and was sentenced to serve not less than 3 years nor more than 3 years in the State penitentiary. The jury was unable to reach a verdict in the other three cases and mistrials were declared. On this appeal, he assigns error that he was denied effective assistance of counsel when the trial court refused to allow him new counsel and a continuance. He also says that his extra-judicial statement was admitted into evidence in violation of his State and Federal Constitutional rights and that the evidence was not sufficient to sustain the jurys verdict. We find their issues to be without merit and therefore affirm the judgment of conviction.
