143588P.pdf   11/30/2015  United States  v.  Brian Scott Dahl
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3588
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Bismarck   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Loken and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The district court did not err in denying 
   defendant's post-plea motion for a psychological exam and competency 
   hearing based on its determination that there was no reasonable cause to 
   believe defendant was incompetent; while the defendant had some memory 
   lapses attributable to a brain injury and drug use, the medical reports 
   provided no indication that he was incapable of understanding the nature 
   or consequences of his legal proceedings, a point underscored by his 
   extensive participation at the hearings.
