Description

Ronald Greer was convicted of first-degree murder in violation of Minn. Stat. Â§á609.185(1) (1998), and second-degree murder in violation of Minn. Stat. Â§á609.19(1) (2000), in connection with the July 26, 1998, shooting death of Kareem Brown. Greer raises four issues on this direct appeal: first, whether the trial court deprived him of the right to an impartial jury by limiting voir dire examination of six prospective jurors regarding their attitudes toward police officers; second, whether Greer was denied due process and the right to confront the witnesses against him by the trial courts refusal to permit him to impeach a states witness with evidence of a prior conviction; third, whether his right to present a meaningful defense was violated by the trial courts failure to permit him to testify regarding aspects of the circumstances surrounding his pretrial statements to the police; and, finally, whether Greer is entitled to a Schwartz hearing to determine the nature and effect of the trial courts ex parte contacts with the jury during trial.
