10 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Haney · State v. Munninger“A defendant who fails to object at trial forfeits the right to obtain appellate relief except in those rare cases that involve "[prong 1] error going to the foundation of the case, [prong 2] error that takes from the defendant a right essential to his defense, and [prong 3] error of such magnitude that the defendant could not possibly have received a fair trial." ... In addition, we place the burden of persuasion in fundamental error review on the defendant.... To prevail under this standard of review, a defendant must establish both that fundamental error exists and that the error in his case caused him prejudice.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Because the sentencing procedure followed denied Henderson the right to have certain facts decided by a jury beyond a reasonable doubt, we conclude that the procedure utilized went to the foundation of Henderson's case.”
