United States v. Stephen M. Rakes

How courts have described this case

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

• “We will assume arguendo the relevance of the suppressed conversations to the government’s prosecution.”
• “The tolling of the state of limitations is . . . governed by state law.”
• “Ordinarily, deliberate disclosure of a privileged communication, where no privilege protects this further disclosure, waives a communication privilege.”
• “It is the plaintiff’s burden to define the relevant market. Antitrust claims often rise or fall on the definition of the relevant market.”
• “Disappointment at not receiving one unloading contract at one particular warehouse is insufficient as a matter of law to rise to the level of an antitrust violation within a relevant market.”
• defendant’s limited disclosure to an uninformed third party held not sufficient to constitute waiver of the marital communications privilege because the disclosure was minimal and was intended to ward off debt collection, not to reveal what the defendant told his wife
