How courts have described this case

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

  • concluding that, when the only contested issue at trial is whether the events that the victim described had actually occurred, then evidence of prior acts to establish intent are inadmissible
  • holding in a child sex abuse case that the trial court erred in admitting the state’s evidence of the defendant’s prior, similar acts of sexual misconduct with a different child, because the defendant’s intent was not a contested issue in the case, and that the error was not harmless
  • applying Baughman to exclude evidence that the state offered to prove identity where the state’s premise was that, because the defendant abused a different person on a previous occasion, it was more likely that he abused the alleged victim in the present case
