June 9, 1992.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Paula Phillips, State's Atty., Effingham, Kenneth R. Boyle, Director, Stephen E. Norris, Deputy Director, Kendra S. Mitchell, Staff Atty., Office of State's Attys. Appellate Prosecutor, Mt. Vernon, for plaintiff-appellant.

Justice HARRISON delivered the opinion of the court:

The State appeals from an order granting defendant Benny Stewart's motion in limine to bar statements or other evidence regarding the use of bloodhounds to follow a trail. The State argues that the trial court erred in excluding the bloodhound evidence and alternatively that the cause should be remanded to allow the State to present an offer of proof as to the reliability of bloodhound evidence.
