Heading: Testimony of Deputy Chuck Fowler

Text: Jones contends that the trial court erred in admitting the testimony of Deputy Fowler as the testimony was hearsay. Jones submits that the testimony was admitted over his objection. However, counsel for Jones moved to exclude the testimony of Deputy Fowler on the ground that he was not provided with statutory notice of the testimony, and not because of hearsay. The record does not show that Jones at any time objected to the testimony of Deputy Fowler on the basis of hearsay. Jones raises an error on appeal different from that raised at the trial level. A defendant is procedurally barred from raising an objection on appeal that is different than that raised at trial. Willie v. State, 585 So.2d 660, 671 (Miss. 1991); Thornhill v. State, 561 So.2d 1025, 1029 (Miss. 1989). A trial judge will not be found in error on a matter not presented to him for decision. Crenshaw v. State, 520 So.2d 131, 134 (Miss. 1988); Ponder v. State, 335 So.2d 885, 886 (Miss. 1976); Howard v. State, 507 So.2d 58, 63 (Miss. 1987). This issue is not properly before this Court.
