Opinion

No. 131111.

September 29, 2006.

Appeal from the Court of Appeals No. 243439.


Summary Dispositions September 29, 2006.

Pursuant to MCR 7.302(G)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals and remand this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for a new trial. In the circumstances of this case, the defendant was denied his due process right to a fair trial when the circuit court refused to admit the complete statement the defendant made to the first police officer at the scene.


I dissent and would deny leave to appeal because defendant has suffered no injustice.
