MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Singleton, 987 F.2d 1444 (9th Cir. 1993):
Whether a defendant has standing to contest the legality of a search presents a mixed question of fact and law. The district court's ultimate legal conclusion is reviewed de novo, and the findings of fact underlying that conclusion are reviewed for clear error. United States v. Iglesias, 881 F.2d 1519, 1522 (9th Cir.1989), cert. denied, 493 U.S. 1088, 110 S.Ct. 1154, 107 L.Ed.2d 1057 (1990).
