Description
HARRIS, Associate Judge: Appellant was convicted in a jury trial of armed robbery, two counts of assault on a police officer while armed, and petit larceny. 1 D.C.Code 1973, §§ 22-2901, -3202; 22-505(b); and 22-2202. He alleges four grounds of error: (1) the trial court's incorporation of a notion of reciprocity in its administration of the discovery process; (2) the scope of his cross-examination by the prosecutor concerning a prior offense, and the court's response thereto; (3) the exclusion of expert testimony regarding the statistical frequency of his orthodontic configuration; and (4) the admission of in-court identification testimony by one of the assault victims who had been unable to identify appellant before their confrontation in the courtroom. While we conclude that the trial court erred in certain of its discovery rulings, we deem the error to be harmless. We find no merit in appellant's other contentions, and affirm his convictions.
