Overview: Defendant's proposed jury instruction, stating that the conspiracy would not become complete until an overt act in furtherance of the underlying drug crime was committed, was properly denied because a 21 U.S.C.S. § 846 conspiracy did not require completion of an overt act in furtherance of the underlying drug crime.
