How courts have described this case

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

  • “In the absence of evidence of the effect the victim’s alcohol consumption had on her behavior on the day she was stabbed, the trial court properly excluded evidence of the victim’s alcohol use.”
  • “[I]t was difficult to ascribe how such a concentration affected the victim because the medical examiner did not know the victim’s experience with alcohol and could not tell whether it made her euphoric, aggressive, or sleepy.”
