Civil Rights
Block on Trump's Asylum Ban Upheld by Supreme Court
Defendant's drug conviction is affirmed where the district court abused its discretion under the Jencks Act when it did not strike the testimony of a government agent whose grand jury testimony transcript could not be produced, but the error was harmless because the agent's testimony played only a small part in the government's case.
