United States v. Stahlman, No. 17-14387 (11th Cir. 2019)
Annotate this CaseThe Eleventh Circuit affirmed defendant's conviction and sentence for attempting to entice a minor to engage in sexual activity. The court held that the district court did not abuse its discretion by excluding the expert testimony of defendant's proposed expert under Federal Rule of Evidence 704(b); the district court's error by admitting the lay testimony of the case agent was harmless; the district court did not err in denying defendant's motions for judgment of acquittal, because the evidence was sufficient to support his conviction; the district court did not err by imposing a sentencing enhancement for obstruction of justice; and any error in denying defendant's post-trial motion for a new trial was harmless.
