## How later opinions describe it (automated extraction)

- holding that the appellant’s conviction for capital murder was proper under either of two theories because the evidence supported determinations that he acted as both a principal in the first degree and a principal in the second degree
- holding that an unsignaled lane change on a road with “medium” traffic and executed a short distance in front of the police officer’s car justified a traffic stop
- finding an assignment of error grounded in the Sixth Amendment waived when only a hearsay objection was made at trial
