Description
PICKARD, Judge. Defendant appeals his convictions for possession of cocaine. Although he raises numerous issues on appeal, we find one dispositive. We agree with Defendant that the State did not present sufficient evidence to convict. Accordingly, we reverse the convictions and order Defendant discharged. See State v. Losolla, 84 N.M. 151, 152, 500 P.2d 436, 437 (Ct. App. 1972) (when conviction is reversed for failure of proof, appropriate remedy is discharge).
