   Federal Courts - 10th Circuit Court of Appeals - March 14, 2007

  
Drain v. Accredited Home Lenders, Inc., No. 06-2096, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, March 14, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: District court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing plaintiffs' case under Fed. R. Civ. P. 37. Imposing $5,000 fine on attorney under Fed. R. Civ. P. 11 was proper because the attorney submitted false certifications, attempted to mislead the court by misciting authorities, and intentionally delayed proceedings by filing frivolous objections.

Myers v. Clark, No. 06-4034, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, March 14, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Following denial of his 28 U.S.C.S. § 2254 petition, prisoner's application for COA was denied because, while the prisoner's claim for state postconviction relief would generally toll the limitations period, it would not toll a limitation period which had already expired, and the prisoner failed to present sufficient grounds for equitable tolling.

View this case - free  

Overview: Filed-rate doctrine did not preclude good faith settlement of a dispute regarding a federal tariff's applicability in the first instance in the absence of a regulatory or judicial ruling directly resolving the issue. Thus, the corporation validly and purposely released its claims in accordance with the terms of the Bill Period Closure Agreement.

United States v. Garrett, No. 05-4261, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, March 14, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Request for a COA was denied because the district court correctly found that defendant's prior conviction under Idaho Code Ann. § 18-901(2003) qualified as a crime of domestic violence under 18 U.S.C.S. § 922(g)(9) because a domestic relationship was involved in the offense, even though the assault statute did not include it as an element.

View this case - free  

Overview: After remand for resentencing, defendant's 57-month sentence for managing a building for purpose of drug storage or distribution in violation of 21 U.S.C.S. § 856(a)(2) was affirmed because any error in the district court's application of USSG § 2D1.8(a)(2) was to defendant's potential benefit, and so was harmless.
