Does the introduction of criminal convictions as evidence of a violation of the Missouri Criminal Code violate due process?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Garcia, 771 F.2d 1369 (9th Cir. 1985):

The circumstances of this case indicate that the Missouri convictions were reliable evidence of law violations, and, consequently, their introduction into evidence did not violate due process. The district court could reasonably have concluded that state law had been violated and did not, therefore, abuse its discretion in revoking probation. See United States v. Guadarrama, 742 F.2d at 489.

Judgment affirmed.

1 It is "not a ground for revocation that a probationer has merely been charged with a crime." United States v. Webster, 492 F.2d 1048, 1051 (D.C.Cir.1974) (emphasis in original).
