How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “[H]earsay statements nevertheless must overcome the Confrontation Clause bar, which may be implicated if the defendant is not afforded the opportunity to confront the out-of-court declarant.”
- A codefendant’s custodial interrogation is testimonial for purposes of the Sixth Amendment and Crawford
- because co-defendant’s statement to police was offered and admitted as non-hearsay to impeach co-defendant’s credibility, and not to prove the truth of the matter, it did not implicate appellant’s confrontation rights
- applying the at-the-time new Tex. R. Crim. Evid. 801(e)(1)(C)
