State v. Voight

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Hampshire reversed David Voight’s convictions and remanded the case, holding that the trial court erred by admitting a detective’s testimony about video excerpts that had been excluded by a pre‑trial motion in limine and that the error was not harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. The Court applied its unsustainable‑exercise‑of‑discretion standard to the evidentiary ruling and found the State failed to meet its burden of proving harmless error.
