State v. Emerson

How courts have described this case

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

• reviewing pretrial competency determination de novo after the case had proceeded through trial because due process rights were implicated
• “exigent circumstances include emergency situations where officers or other persons may be subject to violence or injury”
• amnesia about events surrounding a charge alone does not make a person incompetent to stand trial
• plain-view doctrine allows evidence to be seized if the intrusion into an otherwise protected area is justified, the discovery of the object is inadvertent, and the object’s incriminating nature is immediately apparent
