State v. Robertson

How courts have described this case

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

• concluding that prior witness statements “could be considered as substantive evidence, rather than just for impeachment purposes,” when the defense failed to object to their being read aloud (citing State v. Smith, 24 S.W.3d 274, 280 (Tenn. 2000))
• concluding that a police officer’s testimony regarding an out-of-court experiment with the victim’s pressure cooker was not scientific evidence requiring expert testimony and that the fact that it was presented by a lay witness goes to weight rather than admissibility
