Disarray Among The Federal Circuits: Harmless Error Review Of Rule 11 Violations, Brent E. Newton

The Journal of Appellate Practice and Process

Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11 governs how a defendant must be counseled when pleading guilty or nolo contendre.

This article argues that the Federal Courts of Appeals have misapplied the harmless error standard when deciding Rule 11 issues.
