United States v. Bundy
Ninth Circuit, 2020
Prosecution dismissed with prejudice for late disclosure of favorable evidence. The dismissal was affirmed.
Court finding
The federal prosecution arising from the Bundy Ranch standoff was dismissed with prejudice after the government failed to timely disclose evidence favorable to the defense. The Ninth Circuit affirmed.
It held that the district court did not clearly err in finding substantial prejudice and flagrant misconduct regarding significant withheld evidence, and that lesser remedies would not fully cure the harm.
