WOLLHEIM, J.,
concurring.
I concur with the majority’s decision that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant’s post-trial motion to interview jurors and motion for a new trial. Koennecke v. State of Oregon, 122 Or App 100, 857 P2d 148, rev den 318 Or 26 (1993), mandates the result here. However, if I were writing on a clean slate, I would reverse based on the reasoning set forth in Judge De Muniz’s dissent in Koennecke, 122 Or App at 105-07.
