Supreme Court of Delaware


COVERDALE v. STATE OF DELAWARE, 473,2003

Trial judge acted within her discretion by excluding evidence of the victim's recent drug arrest; such evidence does not, by itself, tend to demonstrate any bias toward defendant or lack of credibility; drug offenses are generally not crimes of dishonesty.
