Opinion Delivered May 4, 2016
ANDREW TYLER PERKINS APPEAL FROM THE
APPELLANT MONTGOMERY COUNTY
CIRCUIT COURT
V. [NO. CR-14-26]
STATE OF ARKANSAS HONORABLE JERRY RYAN, JUDGE
APPELLEE
AFFIRMED
WAYMOND M. BROWN, Judge
Appellant Andrew Perkins was found guilty of possession of drug paraphernalia
(methamphetamines) and misdemeanor public intoxication by a Montgomery County jury.
He was sentenced to twelve years’ imprisonment on the possession charge and was fined $100
for public intoxication.
Perkins argues on appeal that the trial court abused its discretion by not granting him
a continuance after voir dire. When the only issue is whether the trial court abused its
discretion, we may affirm by memorandum opinion.1 We have examined the parties’ briefs
and the applicable law, and we find no abuse of discretion by the trial court in denying the
continuance. We therefore affirm by memorandum opinion.
