Supreme Court of Connecticut

State v. Maietta

March 15, 2016

Summary

The court affirmed the finding that the defendant violated probation after probation officers found a firearm belonging to his deceased father in a garage the defendant identified. It held that the exclusionary rule did not apply in this probation revocation proceeding, the evidence was sufficient, the challenged hearsay and evidentiary rulings were proper, and the firearm restriction was valid because the defendant voluntarily accepted it as a condition of probation.
