View this case - free  

Overview: In a DUI prosecution, the trial court properly allowed lay opinion testimony, pursuant to Ky. R. Evid. 701, from a state trooper regarding defendant's performance of the one-leg stand and walk-and-turn field sobriety procedures, as any testimony regarding these types of procedures was within a layperson's common understanding.

Johnson v. Commonwealth, NO. 2005-CA-002361-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, January 12, 2007, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Although defendant was advised of his rights before a grand jury under Ky. Const. § 11, there was no evidence that he voluntarily waived the rights. Thus, admission of defendant's grand jury testimony at trial for receiving stolen property was improper because testimony provided only evidence of defendant's intent and challenged his credibility.

Overview: A trial court erred in reducing a jury's punitive damage award to property owners' neighbors to two times the compensatory damages.
