Commonwealth v. Drayton
green
1 sentence2018We did, however, remand the case for an evidentiary hearing on the defendant's motion for a new trial to determine whether "Debra's affidavit falls within a narrow, constitutionally based exception to the hearsay rule, which applies where otherwise inadmissible hearsay is critical to the defense and bears persuasive guarantees of trustworthiness." Drayton I , supra at 25, 38 N.E.3d 247 . | 1 | 2018–2018 |
Commonwealth v. Saferian
green
1 sentence2006In particular, the defendant asserts that he was deprived of a substantial ground of defense, see Commonwealth v. Saferian, 366 Mass. at 96 , because several witnesses, one of whom testified at trial, and the victim were not interviewed. | 1 | 2006–2006 |
Commonwealth v. Simpson
green
1 sentence1999Id. at 165-166 . | 1 | 1999–1999 |
Commonwealth v. Cosme
green
1 sentence1987Finally, the Commonwealth, relying on Commonwealth v. Cosme, 398 Mass. 1008 (1986), submits that, even if the exclusion of the defendant’s proffered testimony was error, the appropriate remedy would not be a reversal of the judgment but rather a remand of the case for an evidentiary hearing to determine if the defendant could produce sufficient evidence of his lack of criminal responsibility. | 1 | 1987–1987 |
