PREVIEW: State of Montana v. Laird: Prosecutorial Delay, Insufficient Evidence, and Hearsay
Abstract
This case presents three issues for review: 1) what constitutes actual prejudice for an unconstitutional prosecutorial delay; 2) whether the State may use circumstantial evidence to prove cause of death in a homicide case when that cause is in question; and 3) whether testimony from an unavailable witness is hearsay when it is introduced to describe the steps taken during an autopsy.
