Criminal Procedure — form of verdict

Daniel D. King, pro se, appeals from an order denying his motion for sentence modification. King was sentenced to thirty-five years’ imprisonment for armed robbery. He argues that he is entitled to have his sentence commuted to fifteen years, the maximum time allowed for a conviction of simple robbery, because the jury’s verdict read that he was guilty of robbery and not armed robbery. We affirm because King did not object to the form of the verdict and he was not prejudiced by the scrivener’s error in the verdict. This opinion will not be published.
