Heading: Whether the Defendant's Constitutional Rights Were Violated by the Verdict Reached by a Biased Jury

Text: ¶ 14. This issue is essentially a restatement of the first and has been addressed above. To the extent it is not addressed above, the issue is procedurally barred. It is a longstanding principle of law that [i]f an appellant fails to support her allegation of error with argument or authority, this Court need not consider the issue. Pierre v. State, 607 So.2d 43, 48 (Miss.1992) (citations omitted). In raising this issue on appeal, Jordan's appellate counsel cites no authority, nor does he direct the Court to any objection by defense counsel at trial or ruling of the trial court that would constitute reversible error. The issue is completely devoid of any specific allegation of error by Jordan. This Court presumes that the judgment of the trial court is correct and the appellant must demonstrate some reversible error to this Court. Edlin v. State, 533 So.2d 403, 410 (Miss.1988), cert. denied, 489 U.S. 1086, 109 S.Ct. 1547, 103 L.Ed.2d 851 (1989). Thus, we find this issue to be without merit.
