United States v. Isgar, No. 11-20516 (5th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseDefendants appealed their convictions for offenses stemming from their involvement in a mortgage fraud scheme. The court concluded that there was sufficient evidence from which a jury could conclude that there was sufficient evidence to convict defendants; the district court possessed subject matter jurisdiction over Tori Aldridge's wire fraud counts and her contention that venue was improper was waived; the admission of certain files at issue were harmless error in light of the other evidence in the record of the fraud; there was no plain error in the prosecutor's use of a dormant guarantee file and the prosecutor's misstatement regarding disbursement of loan proceeds; and the court rejected defendants' remaining arguments. Accordingly, the court affirmed defendants' convictions and sentences.
The court issued a subsequent related opinion or order on January 20, 2014.
