Overview: District court did not err in denying defendants' Fed. R. Crim. P. 33(a) motion for a new trial in an action arising from a kickback scheme; a cooperating witness's failure to produce several boxes of evidence until late in the trial did not constitute a Brady violation because the cooperating witness was not acting on behalf of the prosecution.

View this case - free

Overview: Inmate's emergency motion for a stay of execution was denied because he had not demonstrated a likelihood of success with regard to his attempt to intervene in a § 1983 action that challenged the state's lethal injection protocol because he had not exhausted his administrative remedies as was required under the Prison Litigation Reform Act.

Overview: Petitioner was not entitled to equitable tolling of 28 U.S.C.S. § 2244(d)'s one-year limitations period, as actual innocence equitable tolling rule did not apply. He did not claim that new evidence undermined court's confidence in sentence but instead argued that he was actually innocent based on new reading of Michigan's habitual offender statute.
