How courts have described this case

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

  • explaining that interpreting the age requirement to be the age at the time of trial “might encourage the defense to delay trial and hold the prosecutor captive to dilatory tactics”
  • holding that the age requirement of former Evidence Rule 63(33) — admitting statements “by a child under the age of 12” — is “satisfied if the declarant was under 12 years of age when the statement was made” and that the child’s age at the time of trial “is irrelevant”
  • where the Uniform Witness Act has been adopted by another state, it is not beyond the power of the trial court to compel appearance of a witness through the procedures of that Act
