Appeal Book Endorsement
1The appellant contends that the trial judge erred with respect to his alibi evidence and the identity evidence of a Crown witness. He also says that the trial judge erred by not holding a voir dire on an issue. On these and other issues, we agree with the reasons of the trial judge and the summary conviction appeal judge.
2Accordingly, we refuse to grant leave to appeal.
