After a jury trial, Carlos White was convicted of trafficking in cocaine. He appeals, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence, the denial of a motion for a continuance, the admission of evidence of an outstanding arrest warrant, and the effectiveness of his trial counsel. The challenges are without merit, and we thus affirm White’s conviction. 1. White contends that testimony from his co-indictee, Jimmie Lee Stokes, was not credible, and therefore the evidence that he possessed cocaine was insufficient. However, on appeal from a criminal conviction, we do not determine the credibility of witnesses.1 Rather, we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict and determine only if it was sufficient for a rational trier of fact to find the accused guilty of the crime charged beyond a reasonable doubt.2 So viewed, the evidence presented at trial shows that White got into Stokes’ car holding a plastic grocery bag that was later found to contain approximately 374 grams of a mixture with a purity of 51 percent cocaine. During a traffic stop of the vehicle, a sheriff’s deputy found the bag of cocaine underneath the seat where White was sitting. The evidence was sufficient for a rational trier of fact to find White guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of trafficking in cocaine.3
2. White claims that the trial court erred in denying his motion for a continuance because he had not consulted with his appointed counsel, had not reviewed the discovery material in the case, and was not prepared for the testimony of co-indictee Stokes. But contrary to White’s claim, the record reveals that the trial court actually delayed the start of the trial for two days in order to give White and his attorney time to prepare. Prior to that delay, White’s lawyer had already fully reviewed the discovery material provided by the state pursuant to its open-file policy. During the two-day interval, counsel met with White and together they went over all of the state’s evidence, including a video of the traffic stop and tapes of jailhouse calls made by White to Stokes. Counsel also contacted two possible witnesses identified by White, but neither provided any information helpful to the defense. Although the attorney did not interview Stokes, he knew the substance of Stokes’ likely testimony based on his statements to authorities, and he discussed that possible testimony with White prior to trial. At trial, White’s counsel thoroughly cross-examined Stokes, including attempts to impeach his credibility by questioning him about his prior criminal record.4
