How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that “Rule 5-802.1, unlike some other Rules, does not require explicitly that findings be placed on the record, and we decline to read into the Rule such a requirement.”
  • holding “the ‘cold record’ itself,” not the underlying reason, determines an inconsistency
  • “Unlike the witness in Corbett, Billings did not assert an inability to remember the events surrounding the shooting; moreover, the ‘cold record’ itself demonstrates the inconsistency between Billings’s initial testimony and her prior audiotaped statement.”
