Description

The question presented here is whether appellant should have been granted separate trials on four independent and distinct offenses, where evidence as to each individual offense would not have been mutually admissible at separate trials. We granted certiorari after the Court of Special Appeals, in affirming appellant's convictions by a jury in the Criminal Court of Baltimore under each of four criminal informations, held in McKnight v. State, 33 Md. App. 280, 286, 364 A.2d 116 (1976), that the trial court had not abused its discretion in denying a severance of the cases. We reverse.
