Evidence
Other acts; expert testimony; harmless error

Stuart J. Gasper appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after a jury trial for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (eighth offense) and hit-and-run. He also appeals from the denial of his postconviction motion. Gasper takes issue with two evidentiary decisions to allow certain testimony. With regard to one of those issues, we reject his argument. Assuming without deciding that he is correct as to the other issue, the error was harmless. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
