State v. Marquis

684 A.2d 709, 239 Conn. 934, 1996 Conn. LEXIS 446

Opinion

The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 42 Conn. App. 186 (AC 13373), is granted, limited to the following issue:

“May a trial court, in exercising its discretion under State v. Jarzbek, 204 Conn. 683 (1987), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 1061 (1988), and General Statutes § 54-86g, take into account the fact that the state’s motion is supported by expert testimony and, therefore, order the child witness to be examined by the defendant’s expert?”
