Subsalve USA Corp. v. Watson Mfg., Inc., No. 05-2645, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT, September 7, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: A district court's order granting a dismissal and at the same time ordering a transfer to another venue was internally inconsistent; however, based on the record, the order was construed as a transfer order under 28 U.S.C.S. § 1631 and not immediately reviewable, and thus, the remainder of the appeal was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

View this case - free  

Overview: Denial of suppression motion was reversed and conviction was vacated because critical finding--that a police officer credibly testified that defendant, a passenger in a stopped car, was not wearing a seat belt--was clearly erroneous. No other justification met Fourth Amendment standards for investigation of defendant's identifying information.

Overview: Defendants were properly convicted of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C.S. §§ 371, 1343, and 1346, because the possibility that the state official they wished to influence through large payments was unwilling or unable to perform, or that the scheme never achieved its intended end, did not preclude conviction.
