Cases
People vs. Leigh
(In sentencing a defendant for a
first degree felony murder, a court must consider
the nature of the offense, the offender, and the
relative sentences imposed on the other defendants
and assign a relative degree of culpability in a
multiple defendant case, and the court must sentence
accordingly)
People
vs. Stewart
(A court does not have to allow
separate trials for each of three separate crimes
when charges grow out of a continuing sequence of
crimes)
Ritchie
vs. Konrad
(A court has no authority to renew a
restraining order solely on the protected party's
subjective desire that the protective order be
extended. The court must consider evidence as to
whether or not the protected party's expressed fears
were genuine and reasonable. An objective test must
be employed)
People vs. Jacobs and Owens
(In a joint prosecution for second
degree murder and related crimes, the admission of a
co-defendant's confession through the testimony of
his cellmate is not proper as to the non-declarant
defendant)
