MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Galpin, Docket No. 11-4808-cr (2nd Cir. 2013):

The standard of review for evaluating the district court's ruling on a suppression motion is clear error as to the district court's factual findings and de novo as to questions of law. United States v. Rodriguez, 356 F.3d 254, 257 (2d Cir. 2004). The evidentiary record is reviewed in the light most favorable to the government. United States v. Rosa, 626 F.3d 56, 61 (2d Cir. 2010).
