How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- affirming under an abuse of discretion standard an eleven-juror verdict of guilty where one juror was excused because of illness
- rejecting the notion that “the use of [a defendant’s] prior convictions both to enhance the Career Offender Guideline and to add criminal history points amount[s] to improper double counting”
- photo array picturing defendant with goatee not improperly suggestive where defendant did not establish that witness earlier told police that perpetrator wore a goatee
- “[B]ecause [the defen- dant] did not establish that [the eyewitness] told police the perpetrator wore a goatee, portraying [the defendant] with a goatee would not be suggestive.”
