State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Appellant v. David Hernandez, Defendant-Respondent

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey rejected a per se rule barring uncorroborated co‑defendant testimony of other crimes, holding that such testimony may be admitted if it satisfies the Cofield four‑part test, and affirmed the Appellate Division's reversal because the trial court's limiting instruction was inadequate, remanding for a new trial.
