Idaho Supreme Court

State of Idaho, Plaintiff-Appellant v. John Alan Schulz, Defendant-Respondent

November 30, 2011151 Idaho 863

Summary

The Idaho Supreme Court held that it had jurisdiction to review the State's appeal because the memorandum decision was appealable based on its substance, notwithstanding its title. On the merits, the Court held that “cohabiting” in the statutory definition of “household member” denotes an intimate relationship and does not include a child living with her father, so it affirmed dismissal of the charges.
