How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- defining the term “possess” and upholding the court’s use of examples identical to those in the present case
- refusing to construe phrase “to exercise dominion or control” as referring only to situation where individual has exercised control
- applying penal code definitions in title 53a to narcotics offenses codified in title 19
- ‘‘this control must be exercised intentionally and with knowl- edge of the character of the controlled object’’
- ‘‘[t]he essence of exercising control is not the manifestation of an act of control but instead it is the act of being in a position of control coupled with the requisite mental intent’’
- “[because § 53a-3 expressly provides that the definitions contained therein ‘have the following meaning when used in this title’ [emphasis added] it appears the legislature intended to restrict the scope of this provision to Title 53a only”
