BYRD v. STATE, 668 So.2d 899 (Ala.Crim.App. 1995)

668 So.2d 899

Mark A. BYRD v. STATE.

CR-94-1083.Court of Criminal Appeals of Alabama.
July 28, 1995. Rehearing Denied September 8, 1995.

Appeal from Colbert Circuit Court, No. CC-85-107; Pride Tompkins, Judge.

William E. Smith, Jr., Florence, for Appellant.

Jeff Sessions, Atty. Gen., and Thomas Leverette, Asst. Atty. Gen., for Appellee.

PATTERSON, Judge.

AFFIRMED BY MEMORANDUM.

McMILLAN, COBB, and LONG, JJ., concur.

TAYLOR, P.J., dissents with opinion.

TAYLOR, Presiding Judge (dissenting).

It is apparent that a crucial portion of the record has been omitted. It is the better practice, and we should in this case, under Rule 10(g), Ala.R.App.P., request that the record be made complete by the circuit clerk as required by law. To do otherwise will invite a coram nobis proceeding based on ineffective assistance of counsel.
