United States v. Nolder

231 F. App'x 554

Opinion

MEMORANDUM

**

We review the sufficiency of a charging document de novo.¹ The citation issued to Nolder was sufficient, it contained the elements of the offense and sufficiently apprised Nolder of the allegations she was required to meet.²

Review of a conviction challenged for insufficient evidence is also reviewed de novo.³ Under the Jackson v. Virginia standard, the evidence sufficed for a conviction, because a reasonable juror could conclude that the defendant resisted the officer’s lawful orders to step away from the tent and put her hands behind her back.⁴

AFFIRMED.
