Howard Taylor v. United States

FLAUM, Circuit Judge.

In April 1983, petitioner, Howard Taylor, was convicted on two counts of bank robbery in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 2113(a) and (d). The details concerning his crimes are not relevant to the present appeal, but may be found in our affirmance of his conviction on direct appeal. See United States v. Taylor, 728 F.2d 930, 931-33 (7th Cir.1984). Presently before us is Taylor’s appeal of the denial of his § 2255 motion in which he raises questions of selective prosecution and prosecutorial abuse in revoking use immunity for a potential witness at his trial.
