State v. Ervin

Summary

The court affirmed Ervin's convictions, rejecting his claims of prosecutorial error, instructional error, insufficient evidence for felony murder, improper verdict-form sequencing, and cumulative error. It held that the felony-murder evidence established that the fatal collision occurred within the res gestae of the underlying felony and resulted from an unbroken, foreseeable causal chain. The court vacated the jail-time-credit determination and remanded for credit for all days Ervin was incarcerated pending disposition of this case, regardless of duplicate credit in another case.
