View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: District court improperly denied motion to intervene in mortgage foreclosure action filed by high bidder at foreclosure sale (buyer) because buyer had legally protected interest in property and, thus, had U.S. Const. art. III standing to intervene under Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(a)(2), and fact that it nondiverse party did not defeat jurisdiction.

|||||
Overview: District court acted within its discretion in dismissing debtor's appeal for failure to prosecute where her misbehavior in bankruptcy court was well-documented, and, because debtor knew her mail service was imperfect and court would have soon ruled, she should have frequently checked in with court in case its order could not have been delivered.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT, March 31, 2006, Decided
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Bankruptcy judge did not err in approving agreement between airline debtor and union that modified collective bargaining agreement under 11 U.S.C.S. § 363(b)(1) without considering retired pilots' interest because if debtor thought retired pilots worth buying off, it would have offered them something for a "no fight" clause.

View this case - free |
|||||

Overview: Officer's comments about defendant's physique and a car chase were not the type of comments that an objective observer would expect to prompt defendant to make incriminating statements. Thus, defendant was not interrogated after he invoked his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.

|||||
Overview: District court properly enhanced defendant's sentence under USSG § 2K2.1(b)(5) for possession of a firearm in connection with another felony, drug trafficking, because district court made reasonable inference that handgun in defendant's waistband was connected to drugs and scale in his pockets, which were indicative of drug trafficking.
