  19. STATE v. SHAW Brieffeaturing Wallpaper with Fish!+More Oxygen(Can Never Have Too Much Oxygen)

  20. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen Uniquely Appropriate for Intersection of Fish & Oxygen: §D: Gil(martin) §B: Gil

  21. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen STATEMENT OF THE CASE? CRIMINAL CASE Government always brings the suit, so can say: “State (or U.S.) charged X with [name of crime].” -OR- “Criminal action against X for [name of crime].” Relief Requested always is incarcerationor fines; can leave unstated.

  22. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen STATEMENT OF THE CASE? “State charged [names?], [relevant description?], with [name of crime?].

  23. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen STATEMENT OF THE CASE? “State charged Shaw, Thomas and another (or) Three defendants including Shaw and Thomas Shaw to tie to name of case Thomas because his trial is the one that is appealed [relevant description?], with [name of crime?].

  24. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen STATEMENT OF THE CASE? “State charged Shaw, Thomas and another, who removed fish from nets belonging to others … Can’t say “stole” or that fish “belonged to others” b/c that’s what’s at issue with [name of crime?].

  25. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen STATEMENT OF THE CASE? “State charged Shaw, Thomas and another, who removed fish from nets belonging to others with grand larceny.

  26. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen PROCEDURAL POSTURE? Note that indictmentis method by which State charged Ds, so don’t need here (already in Statement of Case)

  27. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen PROCEDURAL POSTURE? Thomas was tried separately. At the close of the state’s evidence, the trial court directed a verdict for Thomas. The state excepted [appealed].

  28. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen We’ll Return to FACTS After ISSUE ISSUE: PROCEDURAL PART?

  29. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen ISSUE: PROCEDURAL PART? Did the trial court err in directing a verdict for the defendant …

  30. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen ISSUE: SUBSTANTIVE PART? To prove “grand larceny” state must show that defendants took property belonging to other people. Directed verdict means state’s evidence was insufficient to show the crime. Why did Trial Court think state’s evidence was insufficient here?

  31. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen ISSUE: SUBSTANTIVE PART? To prove “grand larceny” state must show that defendants took property belonging to other people. Trial Court held fish at issue were not property of net-owners because nets do not create property rights when some fish can escape from nets. (“Perfect Net Rule”) What does state say is wrong with Trial Court’s position?

  32. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen ISSUE: SUBSTANTIVE PART? Trial Court held fish at issue were not property of net-owners because nets do not create property rights when some fish can escape from nets (“Perfect Net Rule”) State says net need not be perfect to create property rights in net-owners.

  33. STATE v. SHAW Brief: Oxygen ISSUE: Did the trial court err in directing a verdict for the defendant… [on the grounds that defendant did not commit grand larceny] … because net-owners do not have property rights in fish found in their nets where some fish can escape from the nets?

  34. STATE v. SHAW Discussions of Shaw: Focus On “Perfect Net Rule” Used by Trial Court Do our other cases support that rule? Policy arguments for and against that rule. When Ohio Supreme Court rejects that rule, what does it leave in its place? FIRST: BACK TO THE FACTS

  35. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Significance of Indictment Issued by Grand Jury after viewing evidence presented by Prosecution (no evidence presented by defense). Particular charges included if Grand Jury believes it saw evidence sufficient to support going forward with them.

  36. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Significance of Indictment Phrase “with force and arms” in indictment: Boilerplate language traditionally used in conjunction with anycriminal charge Does not mean that evidence showed guns were actually used in this case.

  37. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Significance of Indictment Once trial begins, trial court only looks at evidence actually presented by parties. Claims in indictment then effectively become irrelevant for most purposes Same thing happens to complaint in a civil case unless (as in Pierson) claim on appeal is that complaint should have been dismissed before trial.

  38. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Ohio S.Ct. Treats State’s Evidence as “Facts” for Purposes of Appeal Directed Verdict in favor of defendant means that Trial Court believed that, even looking at all the evidence “in the light most favorable” to the State, State cannot win.

  39. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Ohio S.Ct. Treats State’s Evidence as “Facts” Directed Verdict = even looking at all the evidence “in the light most favorable” to the State, State cannot win. To review Directed Verdict, appellate court must: Treat all of state’s evidence as true Make all reasonable inferences from the evidence in favor of the State

  40. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS Ohio S.Ct. Treats State’s Evidence as “Facts” Common to treat information from a particular source as true for purposes of appeal E.g., allegations in declaration in Pierson

  41. STATE v. SHAW: FACTS NOW TO WHITE BOARD FOR “FACTS” FOR PURPOSES OF BRIEF

  42. STATE v. SHAW SIGNIFICANT FACTS(in chronological order) Third parties put nets in public waters to catch fish. Some fish that got into the nets could escape, but “under ordinary circumstances, few, if any, fish escape.” (p.29) Thomas and others (Ds) removed fish from the nets.
