U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 04-3365
District of Minnesota
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and John R. Gibson,
Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - conviction. State charges dismissed after State failed
to prosecute within six months of written request does not bar later
prosecution under the Interstate Agreement on Detainers based on same
facts by the United States; jeopardy never attached to state charges.
Speedy trial act claim does not apply to United States decision to
prosecute 1999 acts and no prejudice was demonstrated based on pre-
indictment delay. District court did not err in failing to suppress evidence
pursuant to 1999 search warrant because officers had a good faith belief
in existence of probable cause. Waiver of right to appeal sentence
precludes consideration that district court erred in giving a two-, rather
than three-, level reduction for acceptance of responsibility.
