How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding that trial court did not abuse its discretion in granting a missing witness charge against the defendant “in the absence of any verification that the witness’ testimony would be self-incriminating and he would likely refuse to testify on self-incrimination grounds”
- although witness normally should be summoned specifically to invoke fifth amendment privilege, where undisputable inference is that testimony of witness would be incriminating and that witness would refuse to testify, court needs no further verification apart from counsel’s representation
