U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-3081
U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Pierre
[PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Melloy and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law. Evidence was sufficient to support
defendant's conviction for assault resulting in serious bodily injury to a
child; government established a proper foundation for an expert medical
witness's testimony that the child's injury were permanent; district court
did not err in excluding testimony that the child's injury was chronic as
the testimony was too speculative.
