United States v. Kevin Williams-Davis

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that the Jencks Act does not extend to a co-conspirator who did not testify at trial, but whose statements were admitted
• noting that it appeared to be “the first court of appeals to address this argument”
• finding that “[t]he probability of some adverse effect on the verdict [caused by internal influences] is far less than for extraneous influences.”
• finding that a juror’s failure to respond to a question as to his familiarity with a neighborhood where defendants allegedly sold illegal drugs “does not remotely satisfy the daunting McDonough-North standard”
• holding a hearing after four jurors and one alternate “gave affidavits after trial saying that the forewoman said that her husband told her to ‘nail’ the defendants”
• noting language in Phillips that is “out of synch with the Remmer presumption,” and pointing to Olano’s apparent “reconfiguration]” of Remmer
