United States v. Davila - Post-Argument SCOTUScast
SCOTUScast 4-22-13 featuring Mark Bonner
On April 15, 2013, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in United States v. Davila. This case considers whether judicial participation in plea negotiation, in violation of Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(c)(1), automatically requires the vacating of a subsequent guilty plea--regardless of whether the violation prejudiced the defendant.
To discuss the case, we have Mark Bonner, who is an Associate Professor at Ave Maria School of Law.
