State v. DeMarco

2 sentences2019The doctrine of cumulative error, however, "is not applicable where appellant fails to establish multiple instances of harmless error during the course of the trial." Id., citing State v. Garner, 74 Ohio St.3d 49, 64 (1995). 2019We disagree. {¶ 105} Under Ohio law, "[a]lthough a particular error might not constitute prejudicial error in and of itself, a conviction may be reversed if the cumulative effect of the errors deprives appellant of a fair trial, despite the fact that each error individually does not constitute cause for reversal." State v. Givens, 7th Dist. No. 07 CO 31 , 2008- Ohio-3434, ¶ 97, citing State v. DeMarco, 31 Ohio St.3d 191 (1987), paragraph two of the syllabus. | 16 | 1999–2019 |
