State v. Schmalenberg, A06-1160, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 24, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the jury found the corroborated testimony of a paid informant to be credible, given the deference afforded to the jury's credibility determinations and viewing facts in the light most favorable to verdict, the evidence was ruled sufficient by the appellate court to support defendant's conviction of a third-degree controlled-substance crime.

State v. Swan, A06-644, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 24, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: In a terroristic threats case, defendant's prior assault convictions were properly admitted under Minn. R. Evid. 609 as credibility was a central issue; nothing precluded defendant from explaining the circumstances of the convictions; and the convictions had significant impeachment value to assist the jury in seeing defendant as a "whole person."

State v. Turner, A06-822, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 24, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Where defendant was charged with DWI, the district court did not err by excluding expert testimony concerning his IQ; defendant did not challenge the finding that he was competent to stand trial. Testimony concerning the 911 call that led to defendant's arrest was not admitted for the truth of the matter asserted under Minn. R. Evid. 801(c).

State v. Velazquez, A06-1228, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 24, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because record was incomplete, it was not clear whether district court abused its discretion under Minn. Stat. § 518B.01, subd. 6(a), in issuing no-contact order preventing appellant from having contact with his wife and child, but provision permitted no-contact order to be issued and, as so limited, order did not violate due process standards.

Overview: In the insureds' suit to determine their insurer's defense obligations in relation to an underlying lawsuit brought by a neighboring property owner against the insureds, summary judgment in favor of the insurer was proper as the insurer was not obligated to indemnify or pay damages until the insureds' liability for the damage had been established.
