United States v. Grey

The DC Circuit affirmed defendant's conviction for twenty-one counts of bank fraud and other offenses. The court held that the district court did not abuse its discretion by admitting evidence of a judgment in a related civil case, evidence of uncharged acts under Federal Rule of Evidence 404(b), and evidence of the financial damage that defendant's scheme inflicted on his would-be customers. The court also denied defendant's ineffective assistance of counsel claim where counsel's errors, if any, were not so serious as to deprive defendant of a fair trial. View "United States v.
