Tony Richey appeals following his conviction of Level 4 felony possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon ("SVF").  Richey was wandering around in the rain for several hours when police officers stopped him.  A short time later, Richey got into one of the officer’s cars, and the officer asked Richey if he had a gun.  When Richey said he did, the officer arrested him.  Richey presents three issues for review: (1) Whether the State presented sufficient evidence that Richey had been convicted of the pre-requisite felony necessary for him to be considered a SVF; (2) Whether the Terry stop of Richey was an unlawful seizure in violation of both the Fourth Amendment and Article 1, Section 11 of the Indiana Constitution; and (3) Whether the trial court committed fundamental error in admitting evidence of Richey’s prior convictions.

The scheduled panelists are Judge May, Judge Weissmann, and Judge Foley
