P. v. Dean
After a jury trial, John Lyndon Dean was convicted of battery with serious bodily injury and assault by means of force likely to cause great bodily injury. Defendant contends the trial court erred in allowing the victim to testify because her mental disability rendered her incompetent. Defendant also argues that this error and his trial counsels failure to object to it deprived him of his constitutionally guaranteed rights to confrontation, a reliable verdict, and effective assistance of counsel. Court find these contentions lack merit and affirm the judgment.
