How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • noting we consider whether the suppressed evidence “would change the defendant’s trial strategy” in assessing materiality
  • reversing the decisions of the district court and the Iowa Court of Appeals, which had held that, while some of the statements were not disclosed, others were, and that, while favorable to Aguilera, the undisclosed statements were not material to Aguilera’s guilt
  • “Exculpatory evidence is not ‘suppressed’ if the defendant either knew or should have known of the essential facts permitting him to take advantage of the evidence.” (citation omitted)
