United States v. Jack Parker

Vacated and remanded by published opinion. Judge KEENAN wrote the opinion, in which Judge DUNCAN and Judge THACKER joined.

BARBARA MILANO KEENAN, Circuit Judge:

Jack Parker and Douglas Taylor (collectively, the defendants) appeal their convictions for engaging in illegal gambling, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1955. This appeal primarily presents the question whether prosecutors’ failure to disclose certain impeachment evidence, despite knowing of such evidence before trial, violated the constitutional protections articulated in Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83, 83 S.Ct. 1194, 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963).
