Grant of a new trial in a case involving multiple financial charges is affirmed where the court was not convinced that the trial court was mistaken when it determined that there was a reasonable possibility that a prosecutor's mistaken violation of an in limine order during his closing statements had a prejudicial effect upon the jury's verdict.
