Title

Carlson's book cited twice by Georgia Court of Appeals

Abstract

Callaway Chair of Law Emeritus Ronald L. Carlson's book Carlson on Evidence: Comparing the Georgia and Federal Rules (with M. Carlson) was cited twice by Georgia Court of Appeals. The court used the book to help determine whether evidence used to convict a man was unduly prejudicial under rules of evidence in Silvey v. State. It also was referenced three times in Gaskin v. State to address the proper form of questions to determine a criminal defendant's reputation for truthfulness.
