United States v. Carl Courtright
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
Decided January 13, 2011No. 09-2880PublishedCited by 22 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
Carl Courtright was convicted of production, possession, and receipt of child pornography and sentenced to life plus ten years in prison. Courtright now appeals his conviction, claiming that evidence of a prior sexual assault was erroneously admitted at trial and that certain jury instructions were improper. While we agree that the evidence of Courtright’s prior sexual assault was admitted erroneously and that some of the jury instructions may have been incorrect, reversal is unnecessary because these errors were harmless. As such, we affirm Courtright’s conviction.
