How courts have described this case

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

• error in admitting evidence of polygraph exam was not harmless because “guilt or innocence primarily depended on whether the jury believed [the defendant’s] story or that of [witness who took polygraph]”
• court found defendant had reasonable expectation of privacy in grandmother’s house, but opinion is silent regarding evidence supporting that holding, e.g., defendant’s age, payment of rent, equal control, etc.
• evidence that the state dropped murder charge after suspect took a polygraph exam was inadmissible where testimony that the charges against the suspect had been dropped did not imply any wrongdoing by the state in failing to pursue the murder charge against suspect
