8 Citing cases

  1. State v. Jenkins

    672 A.2d 969 (Conn. App. Ct. 1996)   Cited 11 times
    In Jenkins, we carefully pointed out that the trial court first instructed the jury on the charges of attempt to commit robbery and attempt to commit larceny and, in so doing, specifically had defined intent.

    The issue is one of constitutional magnitude implicating a fundamental right." State v. Dunbar, 37 Conn. App. 338, 342, 656 A.2d 672, cert. denied, 233 Conn. 906, 657 A.2d 644 (1995).

  2. Canada v. Gonzales

    448 F.3d 560 (2d Cir. 2006)   Cited 33 times
    Holding that assault on a police officer in violation of section 53a-167c of the Connecticut General Statutes is categorically a "crime of violence" for purposes of immigration law

    "The purpose of § 53a-167c(a) is to prevent and punish injurious behavior intended to interfere with public servants performing their duties." State v. Dunbar, 37 Conn.App. 338, 656 A.2d 672, 676 (1995) (emphasis added). On this score, it is important to note that Connecticut courts have held that assault of a peace officer under CGS § 53a-167c(a)(1) is the greater offense of interfering with a peace officer under CGS § 53a-167a(a), which prohibits "obstruct[ing], resist[ing], hinder[ing] or endanger[ing] any peace officer or fireman in the performance of his duties."

    The trial court's failure to instruct the jury adequately as to the elements of a crime may result in a due process violation implicating the fairness of the trial. See State v.
