View this case - free

United States v. Portillo-Vega, No. 04-4194, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, February 28, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because demanding a prompt and appropriate remedial response to the claimed duress was a legitimate precondition to recognizing the defense, and because defendant admitted that he made no effort to contact law enforcement officers, the district judge properly precluded the duress defense at his trial for illegal re-entry under 8 U.S.C.S. § 1326.
