Prior Decision
Panel decision 872 F.3d 213 (4th Cir. Sept. 25, 2017), On Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (Chasanow, J.), at Greenbelt.
Argument(s)
This case presents an issue of exceptional importance because it denies all defendants the use of innocent assets to hire counsel if they have been subject to any post-conviction forfeiture. The published panel opinion conflicts with the Supreme Court’s decision in Luis v. United States.
