How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that a defendant “could hardly have been greatly prejudiced by admission of [a] knife when two witnesses had already testified to the knife’s existence”
  • holding that the defendant waived a claim that the trial court abused its discretion by excluding evidence where the defendant made no offer to prove after the State objected to defense counsel's line of questioning
  • holding that a police officer’s lack of reaction to West’s threat to kill a witness went to the weight to be given to the threat, not its admissibility under Rule 404(b)
  • determining that the appellant’s claim was waived for failing to make an offer to prove
  • trial court properly denied the cross- examination of a witness where the testimony would have been irrelevant
  • any discrepancy in the actual facts and the expert’s estimate goes to weight and not admissibility
