Block on Trump's Asylum Ban Upheld by Supreme Court
Conviction and sentence for drug crimes is affirmed where 1) defendant's sentence is reasonable and the district court adequately explained its reasons for imposing it; and 2) district court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant's request for independent testing of the drug as he failed to avail himself of the opportunities to make a timely request.
