Highlight

When the Supreme Court remands for redetermination of an issue without specifying the procedure to be followed, the district court may decide the issue on the basis of the evidence already before it or may take additional evidence.
Although the results of a polygraph examination are not generally admissible in a criminal trial unless the parties have stipulated to their admissibility, there is no definitive rule for admissibility of polygraph results in other contexts.
A party seeking to introduce polygraph evidence must present scientific evidence establishing the reliability of polygraph examination results.
