112557P.pdf   07/12/2012  United States  v.  Jorge Morales
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-2557
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Ft. Dodge   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Riley, Chief Judge, and Wollman,
   Circuit Judge]
Criminal case - Criminal law. District court did not abuse its discretion by requiring defendant to comply with the stipulated discovery order and reveal his expert witness; fact that defendant declined to disclose the information and did not call the witness rendered his claim of a constitutional violation speculative; failure to seek a final trial ruling on admission of a video waived the issue; no error in refusing defendant's proposed coercion instruction as it was not supported by the evidence; no error in refusing to give defendant's theory-of-defense instruction where the instructions as a whole adequately presented the theory and the proposed instruction was a string of factual allegations and legal conclusions unsupported by the evidence; district court permitted defendant to argue his theory of defense in his closing argument and did not prevent him from arguing that his actions had been involuntary.
