STATE v. ADKINS

No. 34275.

679 S.E.2d 670 (2009)

STATE of West Virginia, Appellee, v. Sheila G. ADKINS, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia.

Decided June 22, 2009.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jason D. Parmer, Esq., Hinton, WV, for Appellant.

Darrell V. McGraw, Esq., Attorney General, Barbara H. Allen, Esq., Managing Deputy Attorney General, Charleston, WV, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

In this criminal appeal we are asked to review whether the circuit court erred by not awarding the appellant a new trial when the key witness' criminal history had not been fully disclosed prior to trial. Because we find that the circuit court abused its discretion by failing to grant a new trial, we reverse the appellant's conviction and remand for a new trial.
