Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Petitioner Dentrell Brown and his co-defendant Joshua Love were convicted of murder in a joint trial in an Indiana court.
OSHA Violations
It is not hard to find people who complain about government regulations, but the regulations often exist because people do not take optimal precautions on a voluntary basis.
Sentencing – Court Error
This case comes to us for the second time after a district court revoked Sylvia Hollins’s supervised release stemming from her 2007 federal conviction.
6th Amendment – Right to Self Representation
Although the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives every criminal defendant the right “to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence,” the Supreme Court has recognized for more than 40 years that this does not mean that counsel can be shoved down an unwilling defendant’s throat.
RICO
If the allegations in the supplemental complaints filed in this case are to be believed, the defendant law firms and lawyers were involved in a hornet’s nest of ethical violations.
Discovery – Motion to Compel
These three appeals arise out of a discovery dispute between P.H. Glatfelter Co., a paper manufacturer, and Windward Prospects Ltd., an English company on which Glatfelter served a non-party subpoena.
