How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that “when the district court fails to articulate its findings, remand for further proceedings may be necessary”
- explaining that finding by the district court that strikes were made discriminatorily is reviewed for clear error
- noting that defer- ence to the trial court can be appropriate when \it has observed with its own eyes the very act in dispute\
- applying dual motivation but remanding to district court for clarification of findings regarding whether the strike was exercised for a discriminatory purpose and whether it would have been exercised in the absence of the discriminatory purpose
- remanding a Batson challenge because we could not discern \whether the district court applied the proper legal analysis in reaching its decision to overrule [the moving party's] objection.\
- remanding for correct appli- cation of mixed-motive analysis on direct review
