|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Eckhart v. Commonwealth Anchor | green | “a judge, unlike a juror, is uniquely suited by training, experience and judicial discipline to disregard potentially prejudicial comments and to separate, during the mental process of adjudication, the admissible from the inadmissible, even though he has heard both.” | 15 |
| 2 | Cole v. Commonwealth | green | “this presumption will control in the absence of clear evidence to the contrary.” | 3 |
A red or yellow flag on a member means the underlying case has negative treatment: for those, check the case page before relying on the passage.
