Defendant appeals, raising six points. His points include a Batson issue, two concerning evidentiary rulings, two concerning the State’s arguments, and one relating to the denial of a self defense instruction.
No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.
The judgment is affirmed pursuant to Rule 30.25(b).
