NC Gen Stat 15A-1226 (in my old trial practice book, haven't checked to see if changed) says, "Each party has the right to introduce rebuttal evidence." The statute also makes clear the judge can allow new evidence during rebuttal, but if they do the other side has a right to rebut that. Subsection b says, "The judge in his discretion may permit any party to introduce additional evidence at any time prior to the verdict."
I hope Frye is admitted to testify. At least the State has the router and it shows it was in use by BC on 7/11.
HOly thud!!! Router was in BC possession & in use at 10pm friday the 11th. cisco had 2 of these 3825 routers in BC team lab. 1 is accounted for, 1 is missing.
Exactly, they should only be able to rebutt the size of the router. That is all JW talked about.
If BC was running a hardware VPN client on his router (which is the most likely scenario since he had a Cisco IP Phone at home that would need to remain connected) he would not have to authenticate that VPN on every login from home and the VPN tunnel would not time out.
Nice argument from the defense ... should be accept by the judge.
Not necessarily in his possession. He could have accessed it through his VPN tunnel from home.
I want to hear all of it, on all sides.
Actually, I don't *think* the jury is present. Not 100% sure, though.
Exactly, they should only be able to rebutt the size of the router. That is all JW talked about.
So in other words, you don't really care about the truth of the matter? Brad said he was asleep at 9:30 pm. at the latest, and didn't arise before 4:00 a.m., yet there are increasingly numerous reports of Brad being on computer/s during that time period.
