State v. Kallberg

Summary

The court held that the parties' nolle agreement was ambiguous as to whether the defendant's donation secured nolles in all four pending cases or only in the drug case. Because the agreement was memorialized solely in a hearing transcript and remained ambiguous after review of the record, the ambiguity was construed against the state, requiring enforcement of the agreement as a global disposition. The court therefore affirmed the Appellate Court's judgment reversing the convictions and ordering specific performance of the nolle agreement.
