View this case - free  

Overview: Even if the trial court erred in compelling defendant's wife to testify concerning a similar transaction, such error was not reversible since there was no reasonable possibility of different verdict had defendant's wife not testified. Defendant was thus also unable to show that his lawyer's performance relating to this issue was ineffective.
