Description

By unpublished opinion the Court of Appeals granted the personal restraint petition filed by petitioner Terry Eugene Mercer. The petition alleged it was constitutional error not to have instructed the jury the State must prove the absence of excuse because sufficient facts had been presented to put the issue before the jury and that Mercer was actually and substantially prejudiced by the jury not being so instructed. We reverse.
