Description
We granted certiorari to review the decision of the court of appeals in People v. Jones, 635 P.2d 904 (Colo. App. 1981), which reversed a second degree assault conviction against the defendant, Bruce Wilson Jones, Jr., and remanded the case for a new trial. The court of appeals concluded that the trial court did not adequately instruct the jury on self-defense in a multiple assailant situation, that the court unduly restricted defense counsel's cross-examination of the victim about bias, motive, or interest as well as about matters relating to the witness's direct examination, and that it erroneously prohibited defense counsel from offering evidence of specific instances of the victim's prior acts of violence on the issue of initial aggression. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for a new trial.
