P. v. Mason
A jury convicted defendant Tommie Sylvester Mason, Jr., of possession of cocaine base for sale. He contends that the trial court erred in admitting evidence of a prior conviction for selling cocaine base to an undercover officer on the issues of his knowledge of the narcotic nature of the drug and intent to sell it. In the alternative, he argues that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance by failing to enter into a stipulation removing those issues from the jurys consideration. Court find no evidentiary error or ineffective assistance, and affirm the judgment.
