Docket entry
070479 Commonwealth v. Juares 11/02/2007 A trial court did not err in denying motions for a mistrial and to set aside the verdict in a sexual battery prosecution based on an ex parte communication between the jury and court personnel during deliberations. The communication was not presumptively prejudicial as a matter of law because it did not concern matters pending before the jury, and the defendant failed to establish that he was prejudiced by the communication. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed and the conviction is reinstated.
