Opinions March 11, 2020
The following opinions were posted after IL deadline Tuesday.
7th Circuit Court of Appeals
USA v. Monique Bowling
19-2110
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, Hammond Division. Judge Philip P. Simon.
Criminal. Affirms Monique Bowling’s 63-month sentence for conviction of theft from a local government that received federal funds under 18 U.S.C. § 666(a)(1)(A). Finds the federal funds element was met when the parties stipulated that the City of Gary received more than $10,000 in federal benefits in a one-year period. Also finds no error in admitting testimony under Rule 404(b) and that the district court’s finding that Bowling deliberately exaggerated her mental health symptoms and remained mute to unnecessarily delay the proceedings does not need to be disturbed.
