State v. Tully
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of first-degree felony murder and conspiracy to commit robbery. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) the trial justice did not abuse his discretion in denying Defendant’s motion to pass the case due to an alleged discovery violation pursuant to Sup. Ct. R. Crim. P. 16 because, although Defendant framed the issue as one of insufficient disclosure, Rule 16 was, in fact, not implicated; and (2) the trial justice articulated adequate grounds for denying Defendant’s motion for a new trial and neither overlooked not misconceived material evidence, nor was otherwise clearly wrong, in making his decision.
