Michigan Court of Appeals May 21, 1979, Docket 77-2927 (People v. Stein)

M. F. Cavanagh, J.

Defendant was charged with armed robbery, MCL 750.529; MSA 28.797, in connection with the theft of the complainant’s purse from her place of work. After a jury trial, defendant was convicted of robbery not armed, MCL 750.530; MSA 28.798, and appeals as of right.

Defendant argues that the trial court’s use of the "struck method” to impanel the jury constituted reversible error.
