Johnson v. Amethyst Corp.11/7/1995
use of action was "to develop the entire picture of a personality type" because it directly related to the issue of damages. This reason is not one of the stated purposes allowing such evidence under Rule 404(b). In addition, the evidence of prior drug use is irrelevant to plaintiff's credibility under 608(b). We, therefore, find that the evidence of prior drug use was erroneously allowed into evidence by the trial court.
For the foregoing reasons, we reverse the judgment of the trial court and order a new trial.
New trial.
Judges GREENE and MARTIN, John C. concur.
