How courts have described this case

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

  • noting that court, in its discretion, could have ordered a lineup, but “it does not follow from these possibilities for better procedures that the actual identifications were unreliable to the point of inadmissibility”
  • concluding that even when a prospective juror states that a criminal defendant must prove his innocence it is not an unsustainable exercise of discretion for the trial court to seat the juror if the prospective juror states she will apply the trial court’s reasonable doubt instruction
  • qualification turns not on preconceptions, per se, but on willingness and ability to follow the law
  • objection based on claim of prejudice exceeding probative value
