United States v. Shmuckler, No. 12-3024 (D.C. Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseDefendant appealed his conviction for five counts of bank fraud and five counts of possessing and uttering a counterfeit security with intent to deceive. Defendant had deposited a number of checks that falsely listed him as the payee. The court reversed the conviction as to the counterfeit count because the government failed to present evidence from which a reasonable jury could have found that the security was counterfeit. The court affirmed the district court's judgment in all other respects and denied defendant's request to remand for an inquiry into jury selection.
