163050P.pdf 11/07/2018 Adetokunbo Adejumo v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-3050
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Stras, Author, with Benton and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Prisoner case - Civil Rights. The oath Adejumo swore before he testified
at his revocation of pre-trial release hearing informed him he was under a
duty to tell the truth or face punishment, and defense counsel was not
required to preemptively warn Adejumo of an obligation that would
otherwise be clear; counsel's failure to warn Adejumo of a speculative
risk of false testimony was not ineffective assistance of counsel; the
plea agreement establishes that defense counsel's concession of the amount
of loss at sentencing was objectively reasonable under the circumstances.
Judge Kelly, dissenting.
