Gregory Chandler - Money-Laundering

United States v. Spriggs, 102 F. 3d 1245 (D. C. Cir. 1996) is a case involving money-laundering. The Court affirmed the conviction in a money-laundering prosecution. The appellate court held that the defendants had failed to make a timely objection to the testimony of a law enforcement officer called as an expert on money-laundering practices. The defendants made no objection when the testimony was given, and although they raised concerns about the testimony in a bench conference called at the behest of the prosecution partway through the officer's testimony, it was not until the following day that they moved to strike the testimony. The court, therefore,
conducted a plain error review and found none.
