Description
Mason Billingsley was convicted of robbery in the first degree, in violation of AS 11.41.500(a)(1). Billingsley v. State,
Memorandum Opinion and Judgment No. 664 (Alaska App., August 15, 1984) [hereinafter Billingsley I ]. At trial, the state
introduced evidence of Billingsley's unrecorded custodial confession. Id. at 3. This confession has been the subject of numerous
appellate proceedings. In the instant case, both parties are appealing from decisions of Superior Court Judge S.J. Buckalew,
Jr., concerning this confession. Billingsley appeals from Judge Buckalew's finding that use of this confession at trial was
harmless error. The state, in its cross-appeal, argues that Judge Buckalew erred in deciding Billingsley had not waived the
right to argue that evidence of his confession should have been suppressed under Stephan v. State, 711 P.2d 1156 (Alaska 1985). The facts of this case are set out in this court's decision in Billingsley I. Billingsley was charged and convicted of robbing
a Qwik Stop store on June 1, 1982. Id. Because the error claim in this appeal concerns evidence which was introduced at trial,
we will briefly summarize that evidence.
