Description
Following a jury trial, the defendant, Maurice Coleman, was convicted of forgery in the second degree involving more than
$300 and was sentenced to a term of imprisonment for not less than 2 years nor more than 4 years. The defendant appeals, assigning
as error the court's (1) overruling of his motion to suppress an in-court identification, (2) allowing evidence of uncharged
misconduct and prior bad acts into evidence, and (3) imposing an excessive sentence. We affirm. In determining the correctness of a trial court's ruling on a motion to suppress, an appellate court will uphold the trial
court's findings of fact unless those findings are clearly erroneous. State v. Melton, 239 Neb. 790, 478 N.W.2d 341 (1992);
State v. Tingle, 239 Neb. 558, 477 N.W.2d 544 (1991). In determining whether a trial court's findings on a motion to suppress
are clearly erroneous, an appellate court does not reweigh the evidence or resolve conflicts in the evidence, but, rather,
recognizes the trial court as the finder of fact and takes into consideration that the trial court has observed witnesses
testifying in regard to such motion. State v. Melton, supra; State v. Tingle, supra.
