Description

Gary Morrison was convicted by jury of Dealing in Cocaine,[Footnote 1] a class A felony, Possession of Cocaine,[Footnote 2] a class C felony, and Resisting Law Enforcement,[Footnote 3] a class D felony.[Footnote 4] While Morrison raises several issues pertaining to his dealing and possession convictions (but not sufficiency of the evidence), only one is dispositive: Did the trial court commit reversible error in not allowing Morrison, on cross-examination, to obtain the current address of the States key witness? In accordance with our supreme courts recent decision in Pigg v. State (1992), Ind. 603 N.E.2d 154, we hold that it did, reverse Morrisons dealing and possession convictions, and remand for a new trial.
