US v. Ruiz-Lopez, No. 13-10093
(4-25-14) (Gould with McKeown and Quist, D.J.).
The 9th affirmed
a conviction for illegal reentry after deportation against a sufficiency of
evidence appeal. The government
introduced into evidence a deportation order.
By itself, a deportation order isn't sufficient. However, the government also introduced
contents of the A file, including an I-213 form and other documents indicating a
prior removal, and then an arrest after scaling a fence. If there is evidence in front of the jury, it
can be considered. There was here.
