How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that “[o]ne of the convictions must be vacated” where the appellant was convicted of both driving under the influence and driving with an alcohol concentration above the legal limit under two sections of the same statute
  • declining to order a new trial for two brief references to the defendant’s prior record when the other evidence of guilt was strong
  • “Where, as here . . . the evidence of guilt is overwhelming, a new trial is not warranted because it is extremely unlikely that the evidence in question played a significant role in persuading the jury to convict.” (quotation omitted)
  • reversing dual convictions under the same charges
