Supreme Court of New Jersey

The State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Richard Larry Hunt, Defendant-Appellant

January 20, 195825 N.J. 514

Summary

The New Jersey Supreme Court reversed Richard Larry Hunt's murder conviction and ordered a new trial, holding that the trial court erred by denying Hunt's right to inspect a State witness's notes for cross‑examination, by admitting privileged statements made to defense‑retained psychiatrists, and that the indictments were legally sufficient and did not raise double‑jeopardy concerns.
