APPELLATE PROCEDURE - Disposition following reversal
Trial court's error in taking judicial notice regarding voice-dial technology required a new trial. Reversed and remanded.
The court clarified inconsistent caselaw and explained that, if a guilty verdict in a bench trial was based in part on inadmissible evidence, it was unreasonable to expect a trial judge to reassess the evidence and arrive at a new verdict.
