Description
Appellant, William Allen Ekis (defendant), was convicted of aggravated battery, in violation of K.S.A. 21-3414. Defendant appeals from the conviction and from denial of his motion for a new trial. Defendant's first stated issue is that the trial court committed reversible error in failing to have the requisite number of jurors called, examined, and passed for cause as required by K.S.A. 22-3411. K.S.A. 22-3411 reads as follows: ""In all felony trials, upon the request of either the prosecution or the defendant, the court shall cause enough jurors to be called, examined, and passed for cause before any peremptory challenges are required, so that there will remain sufficient jurors, after the number of peremptory challenges allowed by law for the case on trial shall have been exhausted, to enable the court to cause twelve jurors to be sworn to try the case.""
