|||||
Overview: District court's decision regarding accrual of prejudgment interest in an ERISA case was reversed because it incorrectly held that postjudgment interest began to accrue when only liability was determined, prior to the resolution of a disputed issue of damages. Thus, there was no "money judgment," within the meaning of 28 U.S.C.S. § 1961(a).

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT, June 27, 2007, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Substantial evidence supported the conclusion that incidents complained of by an Indonesian Christian did not amount to past persecution and that he was not entitled to withholding of removal. Being subjected to "weird looks" when he carried his Bible in public and having stones thrown at a fellow church member's home did not amount to persecution.

| Carrasquillo v. Puerto Rico, No. 06-2284,
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT, June 28, 2007, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Because an employee failed to challenge the submitted fact that her supervisor did not know of her political affiliation, the court deemed the issue waived and accepted the fact as true; as such, the employee failed to establish a prima facie case of political discrimination given the lack of knowledge of plaintiff's political affiliation.

|||||
Overview: Where an employer was held liable for violating the FLSA, 29 U.S.C.S. §§ 215-216, motions to set aside a stipulation were properly denied as it failed to show mistake, the stipulation was memorialized in a pretrial conference, becoming the law of the case, and annual dollar value coverage, the stipulation's subject matter, was not jurisdictional.

|||||
Overview: A district court did not err when it rejected a postal employee's argument that the USPS's finding of "disability" was the equivalent of a "disability" finding for purposes of the Rehabilitation Act; the employee could not only perform his duties, he could work substantial overtime hours and did not establish that he was substantially impaired.

|||||
Overview: Sufficient evidence supported defendant's conviction for illegally reentering the U.S. after prior deportation, a violation of 8 U.S.C.S. § 1326, because defendant's factual stipulations, a photograph on a cedula, and evidence presented by a records custodian regarding an alien file were sufficient to establish the alienage element of the offense.
