Forrest v. Stategreen1 sentence2001The Court in Forrest v. State, 335 So.2d 900, 903 (Miss.1976), stated that "harmless error" is present only when "it is apparent on the face of the record that a fair minded jury could have arrived at no verdict other than that of guilty [even if the error were rectified]." Based on these precedents, this Court finds that even if the sua sponte instruction were given, the jury would still have found the defendant guilty. | 1 | 1 |
