    In LaFrance the witness was a participant in the crime and his right not to be compelled to incriminate himself was implicated.

  2. State v. Lopez

    142 N.M. 138 (N.M. 2007)   Cited 15 times
    Finding a “per se” Sixth Amendment violation in admitting testimonial statements of co-defendants who did not testify at the defendant's trial where the defendant did not have an opportunity to cross-examine the co-defendants

    Thus, this error was clearly harmless. See State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 621, 495 P.2d 797, 799 (Ct.App. 1972) (concluding that because the testimony of a witness who was not sequestered related only to charge of which defendant was acquitted, not charge of which defendant was convicted, any error in allowing witness to remain was harmless). CONCLUSION

  3. State v. Southworth

    132 N.M. 615 (N.M. Ct. App. 2002)   Cited 16 times
    Holding that statements obtained in violation of Miranda may still be used for impeachment purposes

    {51} Moreover, Defendant provides no support for his assertion that the jury improperly heard evidence that served to prejudice it against Defendant because he has failed to make any showing of such prejudice. See State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 621-622, 495 P.2d 797 (Ct.App. 1972) (rejecting the defendant's contention that, when he was convicted of armed robbery and acquitted of attempted murder, the attempted murder charge received over-emphasis and poisoned the mind of the jury because the defendant failed to make an affirmative showing of prejudice). Finally, Defendant failed to preserve this argument because he failed to move for severance or to object to the evidence introduced at trial.

  4. State v. Helker

    88 N.M. 650 (N.M. Ct. App. 1976)   Cited 24 times
    Holding that the "[R]ules of [C]riminal [P]rocedure can put a time limitation on the exercise of a constitutionally protected right"

    Jackson has been followed or referred to in New Mexico at least twelve times. State v. Lujan, 87 N.M. 400, 534 P.2d 1112 (1975); State v. Barnett, supra; State v. LaCour, supra; State v. Gurule, supra; State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 495 P.2d 797 (Ct.App. 1972); State v. Cranford, supra; State v. Gruender, 83 N.M. 327, 491 P.2d 1082 (Ct.App. 1971); State v. LeMarr, 83 N.M. 18, 487 P.2d 1088 (1971); State v. Burk, 82 N.M. 466, 483 P.2d 940 (Ct.App. 1971); State v. Word, 80 N.M. 377, 456 P.2d 210 (Ct.App. 1969); State v. Ortega, supra; Pece v. Cox, 74 N.M. 591, 396 P.2d 422 (1964). Although the judge need not make formal findings of fact or write an opinion, his conclusion that the confession is voluntary must appear from the record with unmistakable clarity.

  5. State v. Rhea

    86 N.M. 291 (N.M. Ct. App. 1974)   Cited 22 times
    Applying larceny statute to the defendant who took money from employer's cash register

    Instructions are sufficient if, considered as a whole, they fairly present the issues and the applicable law. State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 495 P.2d 797 (Ct.App. 1972). The instructions on intent, considered as a whole, were sufficient.

  6. State v. Puga

    85 N.M. 204 (N.M. Ct. App. 1973)   Cited 27 times

    Instructions are to be considered as a whole; all elements of the offense need not be contained in one instruction. State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 495 P.2d 797 (Ct.App. 1972). Since the essential elements of robbery are covered in the instructions, if defendant considered certain of the elements should have been defined, he should have raised the issue in the trial court.

  7. State v. Rodriguez

    84 N.M. 60 (N.M. Ct. App. 1972)   Cited 8 times
    In State v. Rodriguez, 84 N.M. 60, 499 P.2d 378 (Ct.App. 1973), the state's only witness did not know who the informer was when requested at the close of the state's case.

    We have reviewed the record and find there was substantial evidence of guilt of Rodriguez as charged. State v. Paul, 83 N.M. 619, 495 P.2d 797 (Ct.App. 1972). Affirmed.
