City of Billings v. Nolan
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of reckless driving and failing to yield to an emergency vehicle. Defendant appealed, arguing that the victim’s in-court identification was impermissibly suggestive and unreliable and that a police officer’s testimony regarding vehicle registration information received from dispatch was inadmissible hearsay. The district court denied the appeal. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the trial court (1) did not err in allowing the victim’s in-court identification of Defendant at trial; and (2) did not abuse its discretion in admitting testimony concerning vehicle registration information received from police dispatch.
