Syllabus

Trial court did not err in convicting defendant of obstructing official business after guilty verdict based on evidence that defendant both reentered his residence after being told by police not to do so and verbally interfered with officers' attempts to investigate a report of a person calling for help inside defendant's residence. Trial court acted within its discretion in giving OJI jury instruction, in declining to give additional instructions proposed by defendant, and in its response to a jury question. Cumulative effect of other alleged mistakes did not amount to constitutional deprivation. Judgment affirmed, and matter remanded for corrective nunc pro tunc judgment entry.
