Heading: Whether cummulative error requires reversal.

Text: ¶ 44. Ruffin argues that the cummulative errors in the case, most significantly the denial of a duress instruction on the underlying felony of kidnapping, require reversal. ¶ 45. In Byrom, this Court clarified that in cases where harmless error or no reversible error is found, this Court will review on a case-by-case basis whether such error or errors, although not reversible when standing alone, may when considered cumulatively require reversal because of the resulting cumulative prejudicial effect. Byrom, 863 So.2d at 846-47. Having found no errors in the case before us, we find this issue to be without merit. See Harris v. State, 970 So.2d 151, 157 (Miss.2007).
