Ford v. United States
Petition for certiorari denied on June 10, 2013
Issue: (1) Whether a proper harmless error analysis may ignore the prejudicial effect of evidence erroneously admitted at a trial and focus only on whether other evidence from the trial is convincing enough to sustain a conviction; (2) Whether a Court of Appeals may override the Government’s express waiver of the harmlessness inquiry and engage in sua sponte harmless error review.
