How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that concern might be legitimately raised if corrupt officer’s testimony falsely presented “a witness of assumed moral rectitude whose collapse from virtue might destroy the foundation of the prosecution case”
- upholding district court’s finding that information whose impeachment value was “de minimis” was not of “high value”
- \additional evidence tending further to impeach the credibility of a witness whose character had already been shown to be questionable\ would not have caused jury to have reasonable doubt about defendant's guilt
