How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “kickbacks” by construction contractors to public officials established extortion “under color of official right,” despite absence of “threat, fear, or duress”
- “Mere possibility” that some evidence under 34-count conspiracy and extortion indictment might be inadmissible against some of six defendants “is not in itself a sufficient reason for multiple trials growing out of a closely related set of transactions.”
