State v. Rocha

Summary

The court vacated Rocha’s conviction for driving under suspension because the evidence did not establish that his license was suspended on the date he drove. It otherwise affirmed, holding that the warrantless vehicle search was supported by the automobile exception, that recorded police commentary about Rocha’s credibility was admissible subject to ordinary relevance and prejudice rules, and that the remaining errors did not require reversal. The court also upheld denial of a mistrial and refusal to instruct on attempted possession.
