        "text": "OPINION\nHERNANDEZ, Judge.\nDefendant appeals his jury conviction and sentence for robbery while armed with a deadly weapon in violation of Section 40A-16-2, N.M.S.A.1953 (2d Repl. Vol. 6, Supp.1973), and of battery in violation of 40A-3-4, N.M.S.A.1953 (2d Repl. Vol. 6). He alleges three points of error. We affirm.\nThe facts pertinent to defendant\u2019s points of error will be set forth in the discussion of each point.\nPOINT I: \u201cTHE COURT ERRED AND ABUSED ITS DISCRETION IN PROHIBITING EVIDENCE SUPPORTING DEFENDANT\u2019S DEFENSE OF INSANITY.\u201d\nThe answer to this point is factual. Defendant abandoned any attempt to introduce evidence on the issue of insanity.\nDefendant notified the state pursuant to R.Cr.P. 35(e), \u00a7 41-23-35(e), N.M.S.A. 1953 (2d Repl. Vol. 6, 1972, Supp.1973), that he intended to call an expert witness on the issue of capacity to form specific intent. Defendant never gave notice pursuant to R.Cr.P. 35(a), \u00a7 41-23-35(a), N.M.S.A.1953 (2d Repl. Vol. 6, 1972, Supp. 1973). Nevertheless, in his opening statement to the jury, defendant said that he intended to show through expert testimony that he was incapable at the time of the acts to distinguish between right and wrong. The state objected and the court sustained the objection. Defendant stated that he should be entitled to raise the defense of insanity because it is a matter of degree which defense would be raised and that he was being denied his constitutional right to call witnesses on his behalf. Defendant alerted the court to his intention to make an offer of proof on the question of insanity.\nOn appeal defendant contends that the state actually had notice that he would raise the defense of insanity. He never brought this alleged fact to the attention of the trial court. R.Evid. 103, \u00a7 20-4-103, N.M.S.A.1953 (Repl. Vol. 4, 1970, Supp. 1973), and R.G.A. 11, \u00a7 21-12-11, N.M.S.A. 953 (Inter.Supp.1974), preclude the defendant from raising this ground for reversal on appeal.\nIn addition, defendant never made an offer of proof on the issue of insanity. Indeed, one of his experts was unable even to give an opinion on whether or not defendant was able to form the specific intent necessary for the crimes for which defendant stood charged. Under the circumstances of this case, defendant abandoned his defense of insanity.\nPOINT II: \u201cTHE TRIAL COURT ERRED IN STRIKING DEFENDANT\u2019S DISQUALIFICATION OF HIM.\u201d\nSection 21-5-9, N.M.S.A.1953 (Repl. Vol. 4, Supp. 1973), provides:\n\u201cThe affidavit of disqualification shall be filed within ten [10] days after the cause is at issue or within ten [10] days after the time for filing a demand for jury trial has expired, whichever is the later [sic].\u201d [Emphasis Ours.]\nA criminal cause is \u201cat issue\u201d when the defendant enters a plea. Gray v. Sanchez, 86 N.M. 146, 520 P.2d 1091 (1974); Territory v. Gonzales, 13 N.M. 94, 79 P. 705 (1905); United States v. Aurandt, 15 N.M. 292, 107 P. 1064 (1910). The case was originally set for jury trial by the trial court on July 30, 1973. It was continued at the request of defendant\u2019s counsel to September 10, 1973. Defendant\u2019s affidavit of disqualification was not filed until November 21, 1973. It was not timely; and the trial court committed no error in striking it. Gray v. Sanchez, supra.\nPOINT III: \u201cTHE TRIAL COURT ERRED IN DENYING DEFENDANT\u2019S MOTION TO DISMISS AND VACATE.\u201d\nThis point does not merit our consideration. Defendant\u2019s argument is less than clear and he cites no authority either to support the argument or to give us a hint as to what he is arguing. Accordingly, we consider the point abandoned. R.G.A. 9, \u00a7 21-12-9, N.M.S.A.1953 (Inter. Supp.1974); see Novak v. Dow, 82 N.M. 30, 474 P.2d 712 (Ct.App.1970); Petritsis v. Simpier, 82 N.M. 4, 474 P.2d 490 (1970).\nThe judgment and sentence below are affirmed.\nIt is so ordered.\nHENDLEY and LOPEZ, JJ., concur.",
