   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-2386
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Benton and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. The district court did not 
   err in denying defendants' motion to dismiss the indictment as the 
   indictment described a fraudulent scheme to violate the federal statutes 
   regarding mail and wire fraud; with respect to restitution to the victims 
   of the scheme, the government met its burden of showing by a preponderance 
   of the evidence that the $1.5 million total loss was attributable to the 
   fraud scheme, and the district court did not err in adopting that figure 
   as fairly representative of the actual loss caused by the scheme.
