Outcome
Appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, rejecting appellant's claim of racial bias in the magistrate's credibility determinations and witness testimony evaluation.
Excerpt
Appellant's claim that he did not receive a fair trial lacks merit. There is nothing in the record to indicate that the trial court magistrate exhibited racial bias by crediting appellees' trial testimony over appellant's testimony and video evidence. Moreover, the credibility of the witnesses' testimony was for the magistrate, as trier of fact, to resolve, and there is nothing in the record indicating that the magistrate's credibility determination was unsound. Judgment affirmed.
