Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by  A juror in an attempted first-degree murder-aggravated
            kidnapping case fainted during trial when slides of the victim
            were being shown. A doctor who had just testified concerning the
            victim's injuries treated the juror. The juror who fainted was
            replaced by an alternate. Defendant moved for a mistrial. The
            motion was denied.   This case addresses: (1) the mistrial ruling; (2) the ex parte
            conversation between the trial court and the fainting juror; (3)
            the admissibility of the slides; (4) the absence of an
            instruction on voluntary intoxication; and (5) defendant's pro se
            brief and pro se argument. James Minski was convicted of
            aggravated kidnapping (K.S.A. 21-3421) and attempted first-degree
            murder (K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 21-3301 and K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 21-3401).
            Our jurisdiction is under K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 22-3601(b)(1) (appeal
            of a class A felony conviction or imposition of a maximum
            sentence of life imprisonment).
