Robinson v. Commonwealth, 2005-SC-000750-MR, SUPREME COURT OF KENTUCKY, November 22, 2006, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Marriage of person under 16 was voidable, not void, and thus, was not against Kentucky public policy. Denial of defendant's request for instruction under Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 510.035 since he was married to the victim was error. However, convictions for second degree rape were proper as they related to period preceding the marriage.

Overview: Where a juvenile was accused of committing first degree sexual abuse, under Ky. Rev. Stat.

Wagner v. Giles, NO. 2005-CA-001846-MR AND NO. 2005-CA-002293-MR, COURT OF APPEALS OF KENTUCKY, November 22, 2006, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Trial court erred in granting promissory note comaker's motion to dismiss lender's collection action; borrower's payment to lender did not discharge promissory note comaker's obligation under relevant notes pursuant to Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 355.3-602(1), as payment was void due to fact that it was later set aside as a preference in bankruptcy.

Wells v. Commonwealth, 2004-SC-0593-DG, SUPREME COURT OF KENTUCKY, November 22, 2006, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: While admission of DNA test results showing that defendant was the father of his victim's child violated his Sixth Amendment right to confrontation, because defendant admitted paternity of child in letters to victim that were admitted at trial, and paternity was not a required element of either rape or incest charge, the error was harmless.

Williams v. Commonwealth, 2003-SC-0319-MR, SUPREME COURT OF KENTUCKY, November 22, 2006, Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's convictions for unlawfully prescribing a controlled substance, Ky. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 218A.1404(3), were vacated as evidence seized during a warrantless raid of his medical clinic should have been excluded as violative of the Fourth Amendment and Ky. Const. § 10. However, his statement to agents was not fruit of the poisonous tree.
