State v. Mashke

How courts have described this case

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

• holding that mere speculation that an informant’s testimony would be useful is insufficient to overcome the State’s privilege of nondisclosure
• finding bare allegations that appellant cannot prepare his case without disclosure are insufficient
• where State does not intend to call the confidential informant as a witness, the disclosure of the confidential informant’s identity, who only supplied police with information establishing probable cause for a search warrant, is not essential to a fair determination of the case
