Damra v. United States
Petition for certiorari denied on May 31, 2011
Issue: 1) Whether a defendant who establishes the loss of material and favorable evidence when the government deports a prospective defense witness prior to trial must demonstrate that the government acted in bad faith in order to establish a violation of the Sixth Amendment's Compulsory Process Clause; and 2) whether a defendant asserting a violation of the Sixth Amendment's Compulsory Process Clause may establish, through the defendant's trial testimony alone, that a prospective defense witness deported by the government prior to trial would have provided material and favorable evidence?
