Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that felony murder and felony involuntary manslaughter were mutually exclusive and remanding for a new trial
- stating that “[a] judgment entered on mutually exclusive verdicts is void” without explaining why such an error renders the judgment void rather than merely erroneous
- deciding the State’s appeal where the defendant was found guilty of murder counts and the State challenged the trial court’s judgment convicting and sentencing the defendant for lesser offenses
- “[T]he remedy for a judgment entered on convictions based on mutually exclusive verdicts is to reverse the judgment, set aside the verdicts at issue, and remand for a new trial.”
