COMMONWEALTH v. BURNETT

417 Mass. 740 (1994)

632 N.E.2d 1206

COMMONWEALTH vs. GLEN BURNETT.

Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Hampden.

May 10, 1994.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Brownlow M. Speer for the defendant.

Judith Ellen Pietras, Assistant District Attorney, for the Commonwealth.

Present: LIACOS, C.J., ABRAMS, NOLAN, O'CONNOR, & GREANEY, JJ.

ABRAMS, J.

The defendant, Glen Burnett, appeals from his conviction of motor vehicle homicide. See G.L.c. 90, § 24G (a) (1992 ed.). The defendant raises two issues on appeal. He alleges that it was error for the judge to preclude him from impeaching the credibility of a witness, the driver of the other vehicle, with his prior conviction for "operating to endanger." See G.L.c. 233, § 21, Fourth (1992 ed.).
