Possession of cocaine with intent to deliver
Sufficiency of the evidence

Dermitre B. Watts appeals from a judgment of conviction, entered upon a jury’s verdict, on one count of possession with intent to deliver between fifteen and forty grams of cocaine as a second or subsequent offense. He contends that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict. Watts also appeals from an order denying his postconviction motion for a new trial without a hearing. He had alleged that trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to a portion of the State’s closing argument, but the trial court ruled that the State’s argument was not improper. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
