Harris v. Commonwealth
Facts:
Defendant contended the trial
judge rendered impermissible, inconsistent verdicts by convicting him in Fairfax
of a felony after acquitting him for the violation of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266,
which was an element of the felony offense. The State responded that the record
established the judge did not reject the evidence of driving under the
influence (DUI) and that he gave an explanation, which established that the
verdicts were not truly inconsistent.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- Where the trial judge on
the record explains an apparent inconsistency in the verdicts, and where
the explanation shows that the trial court's action was proper and that
there was no unfairness, inconsistent verdicts would be sustained.
- The court of appeals
agreed with the State. Acknowledging he could not convict defendant of
both reckless driving and driving under the influence of alcohol arising
from the same act, the trial judge said he chose to give defendant a
break, even though the evidence proved he was under the influence. This
statement indicated the judge considered his ruling to be an act of
lenity, and the ruling was not a product of confusion. Thus, there was no
evidence that the verdicts were inconsistent.
