How courts have described this case

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

  • finding conduct was not so inflammatory as to prejudice defendant where prosecutor commented in opening statement that the decedent’s wife had lost “both a husband and a friend”
  • stating, “the provisions of subsection 6(e) are not applicable here because that subsection only references blood samples and their chemical analysis, without any mention of urine samples or urinalysis.”
  • prosecutor who had conflict of interest did not affect prosecution in any way, and, therefore, the defendant suffered no prejudice that would require a new trial
  • “[W]e will not reverse the trial court’s decision where it reached the right result for a wrong reason.”
  • This Court will not reverse a lower court where it “reached the right result for a wrong reason.”
  • “Because no errors were found with regard to any of the above issues, a cumulative effect of errors is incapable of being found.”
