2019See Matter of L.S., 125 N.E.3d 628, 634 (Ind. Ct. App. 2019) (“ . . . [The drug test results] were inadmissible as hearsay and should not have been admitted . . . .”); see In re K.R., 133 N.E.3d 754 , 762 Court of Appeals of Indiana | Memorandum Decision 19A-JT-1727 | December 31, 2019 Page 14 of 18 (Ind.

2019R. 803(6). [29] In In re L.S., 125 N.E.3d 628, 634 (Ind. Ct. App. 2019), this court held that the drug test reports were not admissible under the business records exception to the hearsay rule because, even though an affidavit of the laboratory director stated that the reports were maintained in the normal course of business activity, the laboratory did not depend on the reports to operate or conduct its business.

Reyes v. State green
ind · 2007
2 sentences

2018In this test, the trial court must determine whether the evidence reaches a certain level of reliability—i.e., whether it has a substantial guarantee of trustworthiness—in order to be considered at a probation revocation hearing. 868 N.E.2d at 441 . [11] Reed cites the substantial trustworthiness test and argues that the trial court should not have admitted Weeks’ testimony regarding the drug test results, the counseling, and the victim impact panel.

2010This scientific opinion was determinative in that case because Reyes had already failed a drug test and the court had already revoked his probation, but the court gave him an opportunity to serve only half of his previously-suspended sentence "[ilf no new drug appeared when the second urine sample was tested, and if the level of marijuana did not come back higher than in the first test. ..."
