Bullcoming v. New Mexico
Bullcoming v. New Mexico is a case pending before the United States Supreme Court. The case considers whether a defendant's Confrontation Clause rights extent to a non-testifying laboratory analyst whose supervisor testifies as to test results that the analyst transcribed from a machine. The case follows a line of decisions, including Crawford v. Washington (2004) and Davis v. Washington (2006), that altered the Court's interpretation of the Confrontation Clause guarantee and clarified its application only to "testimonial" statements. The issue in Bullcoming is whether the laboratory test results are "testimonial" under the Confrontation Clause.
