Poust v. Hylton
green
2 sentences2018Our standard of review with respect to grant of a new trial due to inappropriate conduct of counsel was set forth in Poust v. Hylton, 940 A.2d 380 (Pa. Super. 2007): A new trial is to be granted where the unavoidable effect of counsel’s conduct or language was to prejudice the fact finder to the extent that the fact finder is rendered incapable of fairly weighing the evidence and entering an objective verdict. 2018Here, as stated above, the court granted a new trial based on defense counsel’s misconduct; our scope of review, therefore, is limited to the reason stated, and we must determine whether the unavoidable effect of defense counsel’s conduct or language prejudiced the factfinder “to the extent that the factfinder was rendered incapable of fairly weighing the evidence and entering an objective verdict.” Poust, 940 A.2d at 385 . | 1 | 2018–2018 |
