Description
The People, pursuant to section 16-12-102(1), 8A C.R.S. (1986), appeal the jury instruction given at the trial of the defendant, Ernest David Martinez, who was acquitted of the charge of possession of a weapon by a previous offender. The trial court defined "possess" to be the "exercise of exclusive control over an item." We believe that the trial courts definition is incorrect and disapprove the ruling.
