Grady v. Estep, No. 06-1106, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: State prisoner was not entitled to COA under 28 U.S.C.S. § 2253 to challenge denial of his 28 U.S.C.S. § 2254 habeas petition because the state sentencing court's enhancement of the prisoner's sentence based upon his prior convictions was constitutionally permissible under Apprendi and, therefore, counsel was not ineffective for failing to object.

United States v. Guerrero, No. 06-3123, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's consent to the search of his car was voluntarily given where he testified that his gesture was intended to let the deputy know that he could search the car, and a reasonable man in his shoes would have felt free to leave or deny the deputy's request. Thus, the court properly decided not to suppress the evidence found in the car.

United States v. Ramirez, Nos. 06-4153 and 06-4154, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, January 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) provided no basis for the inmate's requested relief since it did not apply to a criminal proceeding, and given that an appeal of the inmate's conviction and sentence was pending, the district court had been divested of jurisdiction over related issues and Fed. R. Civ. P. 60 could not circumvent a failure of jurisdiction.

View this case - free  

Overview: At trial on charges related to convenience store robberies, district court did not err in declining to give defendant's proffered instruction regarding eyewitness testimony because there was considerable corroborative evidence, including videotapes and wadded up money, and a more general instruction allowed the jury to properly evaluate evidence.
