Case No. 2015-CR-00176
Southeast Judicial District, Ransom County
Jay A. Schmitz
2022 ND 128975 N.W.2d 572
Oral Argument
5/13/2022
Highlight
When the defendant does not raise a public challenge to any of the violations he asserts on appeal, this Court concludes any potential error should be treated as a forfeited error, subject to a review as an obvious error under N.D.R.Crim.P. 52(b).
Closures of pretrial hearings implicate the public trial right.
When the district court makes no Waller findings, there is a violation of the Sixth Amendment right to a public trial constituting obvious error.
Given our case law strictly requiring analysis of the Waller factors, we must reverse for a new trial to ensure the fairness, integrity, and public reputation of the justice system.
