View this case - free  

Overview: Counsel was not ineffective, U.S. Const. amend. VI, for allowing the jury to hear a tape where defendant stated to investigators, "I told you all I have to say", because the tape did not show that he acted guilty by immediately asserting his right to silence; rather, the tape showed him acting in a manner consistent with his claimed innocence.

View this case - free  

Overview: Court reserved judgment in determining whether a trial court erred in reviewing the evidence in defendant's criminal case on remand where a different judge originally heard the evidence in the bench trial; thus, the parties were asked to brief on the propriety of a mid-trial replace of the judge in a bench trial under Alaska R. Crim. P. 25.

Bailey v. Texas Instruments, Inc., Supreme Court No. S-11293, No. 5889, SUPREME COURT OF ALASKA, April 22, 2005, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: A court erred in upholding dismissal of an employee's 2001 workers' compensation claim on the ground that it was time-barred under Alaska Stat. § 23.30.110(c) because the 2001 claim was independent of the employee's 1997 and 1999 claims, and because the employee requested a hearing less than two years after the employer controverted his 2001 claim.

DeNardo v. Calista Corp., Supreme Court No. S-11183, No. 5890, SUPREME COURT OF ALASKA, April 22, 2005, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Dismissal of an employee's third action under res judicata was not proper because the employee's first state court complaint and federal complaint both included Alaska Stat. § 18.80 claims and stipulation of dismissal of second action preserved claims in federal complaint. Thus stipulation did not prevent litigation of § 18.80 claim in state court.

Jeff A.C. v. State, Supreme Court No. S-11366, No. 5893, SUPREME COURT OF ALASKA, April 27, 2005, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court did not err in terminating the father's parental rights under Alaska Stat. § 47.10.088 because (1) he did not objectively manifest a desire to be involved in child's life or to parent her; and (2) numerous factual findings by trial court supported the conclusion that it was in the child's best interests to remain with the foster family.
