2012The court reasoned that rule 608 “only bars direct testimony regarding the truthfulness of a witness on a particular occasion” and does not prohibit “testimony from which a jury could infer the veracity of the witness.” Id. ¶ 14 (internal quotation marks omitted); see also State v. Cruz, 2002 UT App 106U, para. 1 (mem.)

2018See Bank of America v. Adamson , 2017 UT 2 , ¶¶ 12-13, 391 P.3d 196 (providing that a party who "fails to devote adequate attention to an issue is almost certainly going to fail to meet its burden of persuasion" on appeal). ¶41 The court also explained that "although her current living style does not match what she enjoyed during the marriage, there are insufficient funds after the divorce ... between the parties to allow her to live that lifestyle." The court appears to imply that the award of alimony could have been higher if Loren's income was similar to what he earned during the marriage.

2026The court explained that while there was “no doubt” that the evidence was prejudicial, it did not find that “the probative value of the evidence [was] outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice.” The court reasoned that rule 404(c) “doesn’t seem to delineate” how many other acts can be admitted and that “the more [other 20230326-CA 4 2026 UT App 80 State v.
