Notes of Decisions
Where store manager told police about bomb threat and they directed him to give defendant’s accomplice marked bills, it was factual determination for jury whether manager was in part motivated by fear of explosion in giving accomplice money. State v. Marsh, 43 Or App 571, 603 P2d 1212 (1979), Sup Ct review denied
Where, at direction of police officer, victim offered money to defendant to obtain the return of stolen purse, defendant’s subsequent threat to forge checks on victim’s bank account did not motivate the pre-arranged exchange and so did not constitute theft by extortion. State v. Gholston, 55 Or App 790, 639 P2d 1302 (1982), Sup Ct review denied
Where defendant threatened to discard cellular phone before victim agreed to pay for its return, defendant was properly convicted of theft by extortion. State v. Davis, 115 Or App 711, 839 P2d 283 (1992)
