Still North of the Border
I'm still in trial and plan on catching up this weekend with SDFLA news. In the meantime, I did notice that the en banc 11th Circuit affirmed Judge Lenard in the Cuban Spy case (USA v. Ruben Campa), in which a panel of the 11th Circuit originally reversed on venue grounds. The original panel (Judges Birch and Kravitch) dissented. And the en banc court remanded to the panel to consider the other issues raised on the appeal. I haven't had a chance to read the opinions which run over 120 pages, but when I do this weekend, I'll post some thoughts. If any of you have read it, please post your comments.
