How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • officers were justified in conducting a thorough and careful search of defendant’s residence for specified items
  • failure to allege separate times when stolen property was received does not invalidate convictions because “time was not an element of the offense”
  • no double jeopardy violation where State had evidence to prove defendant committed multiple offenses of receiving stolen property and specifically listed the property stolen from each of the various owners
  • although goods had been stolen from different owners at different times, defendant received all of the stolen property at one time, and thus could be convicted of only one act of receiving stolen property
