PEOPLE
v.
GALARNO.
Docket No. 658.
Michigan Court of Appeals.
Decided June 14, 1966.
Frank J. Kelley, Attorney General, Robert A. Derengoski, Solicitor General, and John Schubel, Prosecuting Attorney, for the people.
Thomas R. McAllister, for defendant.
T.G. KAVANAGH, J.
The stormy marriage of William and Dorothy Galarno ended November 11, 1964, when William died as a result of a gunshot wound inflicted on him by Dorothy, November 8, 1964, following an altercation in their house trailer. She was tried for first-degree murder[1] and found guilty of manslaughter[2] by a jury.
The appeal asserts as error:
1. The verdict was against the great weight of the evidence.
2. There is no evidence in the record to support a verdict of manslaughter.
3. The verdict was contrary to the law and facts.
4. The court erred in instructing the jury on first-degree murder.
With regard to the first allegation of error, the test in a criminal case is not whether the verdict was against the great weight of the evidence but whether *493 it warrants a finding of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. People v. Schram (1965), 1 Mich App 279;[3]People v. Williams (1962), 368 Mich 494. The record before us satisfies the test laid down in Schram and Williams.
As to the second, third, and fourth allegations of error, the defendant admitted going into the decedent's bedroom with a gun in her hand, waking him up to discuss a matter he had said he didn't want to talk about, and shooting him shortly thereafter. She claimed the shooting was in self-defense. On defendant's admissions, there was ample evidence to support a verdict of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of first- or second-degree murder.[4] Thus there was ample evidence to support a verdict of manslaughter. People v. Milhem (1957), 350 Mich 497. The trial court properly charged the jury on the degrees of murder and on manslaughter.
Affirmed.
LESINSKI, C.J., and QUINN, J., concurred.
