Logan v. Commonwealthgreen2 sentences2011While we certainly can rely on a party's concessions of fact, Logan v. Commonwealth, 47 Va.App. 168, 172 , 622 S.E.2d 771, 773 (2005) (en banc), before we do so we should ensure that the concession was intended and not simply implied from an erroneous recitation of facts. [5] The trial court expressly concluded that "the Commonwealth filed papers that characterized Detective Alston's statement differently than Detective Alston [did in his own testimony]." [6] The Wisconsin Supreme Court used a similar mode of analysis in Cunningham on the facts before it in that case. 2011While we certainly can rely on a party's concessions of fact, Logan v.

Blakey, 76 Va. 254 ; Hord v. Colbert, 28 Gratt. (69 Va.) 49; Wise v. Lamb, 9 Gratt. (50 Va.) 294. | 1 | 1926–1926 |
