MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Tavelman, 650 F.2d 1133 (9th Cir. 1981):
Both defendants contend that the admission of their three extrajudicial statements violated their Sixth Amendment right to confrontation as articulated in Bruton v. United States, 391 U.S. 123, 88 S.Ct. 1620, 20 L.Ed.2d 476 (1968). These three statements, which were admitted into evidence at trial, were later ordered stricken from the record by the district judge who then admonished the jury to disregard them.
