Moreover, even under the federal standard, no per se rule applies. Defendant makes no argument that, by declining to sever, the trial court violated any particular statute or constitutional provision. Defendant does argue that events that occurred during the trial itself violated various rules of evidence or constitutional provisions and that those violations demonstrate why it was clearly erroneous for the court to have failed to grant defendant's motion to sever. When we review a trial court's ruling on a motion to sever, however, we examine the decision in the light of the arguments asserted and circumstances pertaining at the time the pretrial motion was made. Errors that occur during trial may provide grounds for a mistrial motion or for other relief, but they cannot provide the basis for a motion to sever.
Defendant asserts numerous other assignments of error.
We have considered each of them and reject them without further discussion.
