State v. Victor Tavares

Summary

The Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court’s denial of Victor Tavares’s motion for a new trial, holding that the Rule 16(a)(7) issue was not preserved and therefore waived, and that the motion was untimely under Rule 33 because it was not based on newly discovered evidence and was filed well beyond the ten‑day limit. The Court also remanded the case to the Superior Court for further proceedings.
