Does a motion to dismiss an indictment for failing to provide sufficient notice raise a question of law?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Roberts, 363 F.3d 118 (2nd Cir. 2004):

Because a motion to dismiss on grounds that a criminal statute provides insufficient notice raises a question of law, we review the dismissal of the indictment by the district court de novo. United States v. Velastegui, 199 F.3d 590, 593 (2d Cir.1999).
