State v. Kupis

Mr. Morford, one of the attorneys for the defendant, stated that the defendant had made a statement to the police officers shortly after the shooting which had been reduced to writing and signed by him; that this statement was in the possession of the Attorney-General; that it was necessary for him to see it in order to properly prepare his defense, but that the Attorney-General had refused to grant him that privilege. He then requested .the Court to direct the Attorney-General to permit him to inspect that paper.

Layton, C. J.:

The granting of the application would be contrary to all practice…
