MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Marsh, 13-2549, 13-258 (2nd Cir. 2014):

Viewed in its entirety, the charge clearly set forth the elements of conspiracy and "fairly and accurately encompasse[d] the theory of the defense[.]" United States v. Luis, 835 F.2d 37, 40 (2d Cir. 1987). That is all the law requires.
