THOMAS WRENN, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
    No. 7703
    July 9, 1975
    537 P.2d 318
    
      Horace R. Goff, State Public Defender, and Michael R. Griffin, Deputy State Public Defender, of Carson City, for Appellant.
    
      Robert List, Attorney General, and Robert A. Groves, Chief Criminal Deputy Attorney General, of Carson City, for Respondent.
   OPINION

Per Curiam:

Thomas Wrenn was convicted of second-degree murder in July of 1971. The conviction was affirmed. Wrenn v. State, 89 Nev. 71, 506 P.2d 418 (1973).

On April 13, 1973, almost two years later, Wrenn sought post-conviction relief and later on August 16, 1973, moved for a new trial based on newly discovered evidence. This is an appeal from the denial of his motion for a new trial.

In denying the motion for a new trial the trial court ruled that the so-called newly discovered evidence offered by the appellant was not material to Wrenn’s defense and was cumulative. We agree. The record satisfies this court that the trial court ruled properly. Oliver v. State, 85 Nev. 418, 456 P.2d 431 (1969).

Affirmed.
