How courts have described this case

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

  • insertion of the word “serious” before the phrase “bodily injury” to describe the charge of aggravated assault was an amendment of form
  • unless the remoteness in time is so great that the evidence has no value, the remoteness of a prior offense is committed to the discretion of the trial court and is a matter that goes to the credibility of the evidence rather than its admissibility
