All you need to say is that counsel should approach before any reference to the victim's sexual history and cite to Rule 412. Of course if there is something specific about the victim's past (like having sex with the defendant and recording it on videotape) then you may want to be more specific in your motion. All you need to do is make the judge aware that there exists the possibility of 412 coming into play and it will trigger the requirements of the rule for a hearing outside the jury's presence in a closed courtroom. It is no longer truly en camera since a court decided a hearing required advocates and a court reporter. I will send my stock limine motion. To you too, Gordon. | |||
