Supreme Court of New Jersey

State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Kenneth John Manley, Defendant-Appellant

June 27, 196954 N.J. 259

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed Manley's murder conviction, holding that his confession was properly admitted because Miranda warnings were given before custodial interrogation and that the trial judge did not abuse discretion in limiting voir dire questions about Manley's prior conviction, as the defendant had not indicated an intention to testify.
