Petition for reconsideration allowed; former opinion modified and adhered to as modified.
80 State v. Wagner
JOYCE, J.
Defendant seeks reconsideration of our decision in
State v. Wagner,
(2022). We
allow the petition for reconsideration, modify our opinion
as explained below, and otherwise adhere to the opinion as
modified.
Among other things, defendant on reconsideration
maintains that, in footnote 2, we incorrectly refused “to
decide whether [the officer] was qualified to offer scientific
opinion evidence on strangulation.” To more clearly explain
what we are, and are not, deciding, we replace footnote 2 at
page 406 with the following new footnote:
“On appeal, defendant does not challenge the scientific
validity and reliability of Dorsey’s testimony. The only
issue on appeal related to Dorsey’s testimony is her qualification to offer proffered expert testimony under OEC 702.”
We reject defendant’s other arguments on reconsideration
without discussion.
Petition for reconsideration allowed; former opinion
modified and adhered to as modified.
