STATE v. UTTER

No. A08-1667.

773 N.W.2d 127 (2009)

STATE of Minnesota, Respondent, v. Thomas Edward UTTER, Jr., Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

September 15, 2009.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Lori Swanson, Attorney General, St. Paul, MN; and Janelle P. Kendall, Stearns County Attorney, Joshua J. Kannegieter, Assistant County Attorney, St. Cloud, MN, for respondent.

Marie L. Wolf, Interim Chief Appellate Public Defender, St. Paul, MN, for appellant.

Considered and decided by LARKIN, Presiding Judge; ROSS, Judge; and SCHELLHAS, Judge.

OPINION

SCHELLHAS, Judge.

This appeal arises from the criminal conviction of appellant, who argues that the district court committed reversible error in admitting evidence of his unspecified prior conviction for impeachment purposes. Because the district court erred in admitting evidence of appellant's unspecified prior conviction for impeachment purposes under Minn. R. Evid. 609(a)(1), and this error was not harmless, we reverse and remand.
