What is the test for having a jury decide how much methamphetamine was seized?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Glover, 5 F.3d 541 (9th Cir. 1993):
Glover argues the trial judge erroneously refused to give a special verdict which would have allowed the jury to decide how much methamphetamine he had. "As a general rule, the court has complete discretion over whether to have the jury return a special verdict." Floyd v. Laws, 929 F.2d 1390, 1395 (9th Cir.1991).
