183085P.pdf   03/31/2020  United States  v.  Oren Paris, III
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-3085
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Fayetteville   
[PUBLISHED] [Stras, Author, with Kelly and Melloy, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. Defendant did not have standing to asset a violation of another defendant's attorney-client relationship as the Sixth Amendment right to counsel is personal to each defendant; nor can defendant show that any violation of the co-defendant's rights affected his right to a fair trial; claim regarding co-defendant's decision to provide government with tapes the co-defendant had made rejected as the government never directed the co-defendant to gather any information on defendant, and without evidence of such action, defendant could not raise Fifth or Sixth Amendment claims; investigating agent's decision to erase his laptop's hard drive did not entitle defendant to dismissal, as defendant's argument that the hard drive contained exculpatory evidence - and evidence different than that he already had - is speculation.
