121020P.pdf   03/11/2013  United States  v.  Patricia Robertson
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-1020
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Fargo   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Smith and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. In prosecution charging defendant with misapplying funds belonging to her Tribe's Low Income Home Energy Assistance program, the district court's instructions defining the elements of the offense were not erroneous as they fairly and adequately instructed the jury on the mens rea element of the offense; district court did not err in rejecting defendant's "good faith defense" instruction; there was ample evidence to support a special condition of probation banning alcohol use.
