How courts have described this case

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

  • applying plain error analysis to alleged admission of hearsay that was not objected to at trial
  • rejecting defendant’s plain-error claim because the challenged testimony was cumulative of properly admitted evidence
  • no plain error because the challenged hearsay testimony was cumulative of properly admitted evidence
  • “An off-the-record objection does not preserve an issue for appellate review.”
  • because an investigator’s testimony describing another witness’s out-of-court statements was merely cumulative of other properly admitted evidence, the investigator’s testimony did not likely affect the outcome of the trial, and its admission thus was not plain error
  • testimony regarding what witness said to a friend would have been admissible as a prior consistent statement where defendant challenged witness’s credibility at trial by “suggesting that [the witness] fabricated [his] testimony only after the State gave him a favorable plea offer”
