But a witness must answer as to the fact of his previous conviction for felony.","path":["TITLE 9 EVIDENCE","CHAPTER 13 RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF WITNESSES"],"source_url":"https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/title9/t9ch13/sect9-1302/","current_through":"2026 Legislative Session","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-04T11:16:33Z","sha256":"8b7846d40852a09872fc3629b72d7c0104b3cf5d05644df40106e046b122fafb","source_id":"us-id","stale":false,"prev":"us-id/idaho-code-9-1301","next":"us-id/idaho-code-9-1303"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
