---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
11-199 | 7th Cir. | Apr 2, 2012 | n/a | Per Curiam | OT 2011 |
Issue: Whether the Seventh Circuit violated this Court's precedent on harmless error when it focused its harmless error analysis solely on the weight of the untainted evidence without considering the potential effect of the error (the erroneous admission of trial counsel's statements that his client would lose the case and should plead guilty for their truth) on this jury; and (2) whether the Seventh Circuit violated Mr. Vasquez's Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial by determining that Mr. Vasquez should have been convicted without considering the effects of the district court's error on the jury that heard the case.
Judgment: Dismissed as improvidently granted in a per curiam opinion on April 2, 2012.
