Supreme Court of Connecticut

State v. Clark

November 18, 2014

Summary

The court affirmed the judgment upholding the defendant's conviction for first-degree assault. It agreed that admitting four remote felony convictions to impeach the defendant was improper, but concluded the error was harmless because the state's evidence was strong, eyewitness accounts and physical evidence corroborated the victim, and the jury's verdict showed careful consideration of the charges.
