   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-1236
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul   
[PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Wollman and Loken, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. Evidence was sufficient to support defendant's convictions for conspiracy to commit visa fraud, fraud in foreign labor contracting and mail and wire fraud; incident defendant relied on to support her motions to question the jurors and grant a new trial - that an Assistant U.S. Attorney heard a juror say the word "guilty" in the presence of other jurors in an elevator - was insufficient to show the jurors had discussed the case or, if they did, that they considered improper evidence; further, the court offered an appropriate curative instruction before the jury began its deliberations.
