AC42234 - State v. Santiago (Attempt to commit assault in first degree; attempt to commit assault of peace officer; engaging officer in pursuit; "The defendant, Israel Santiago, appeals from the judgment of conviction, rendered after a jury trial, of one count of attempt to commit assault in the first degree in violation of General Statutes §§ 53a-49 (a) (2) and 53a-59 (a) (1) and two counts of attempt to commit assault of a peace officer in violation of General Statutes §§ 53a-49 (a) (2) and 53a-167c (a) (1). On appeal, the defendant claims that (1) the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction of attempt to commit assault in the first degree and (2) the crime of attempt to commit assault of a peace officer is not legally cognizable and, alternatively, the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction of both counts of attempt to commit assault of a peace officer. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.")

AC43030 - State v. Collins (Possession of narcotics with intent to sell; motion for mistrial; motion to suppress; "The defendant, Jiquane Chris Collins, appeals from the judgment of conviction, rendered by the trial court in accordance with the jury's verdict, of two counts of possession of narcotics with intent to sell in violation of General Statutes (Rev. to 2017) § 21a-278 (b). On appeal, the defendant claims that the trial court (1) improperly denied his motions for a mistrial following testimony on the ultimate issue of his intent and following testimony concerning alleged prior misconduct, and (2) erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence seized during the execution of a search warrant that had been issued without probable cause. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.")

AC42612 - State v. Williams (Sexual assault in second degree; whether trial court deprived defendant of constitutional right to assistance of counsel by allowing him to represent himself; "The defendant, Dayvon Williams, appeals from the judgment of conviction, rendered after a trial to the court, of sexual assault in the second degree in violation of General Statutes § 53a-71 (a) (3). On appeal, the defendant claims that the court (1) deprived him of his constitutional right to the assistance of counsel by allowing him to represent himself, and (2) abused its discretion by failing, sua sponte, to order a competency hearing or to appoint counsel for him after it granted his request to represent himself. We disagree and, accordingly, affirm the judgment of the trial court.")
