J. Tabor finds that defendant was properly denied postconviction relief after being convicted of robbery for holding up a Pizza Hut. His former co-workers recognized him and overwhelming evidence of the crime was found in defendant's car; therefore, counsel's recommendation that he waive a jury trial was an appropriate strategy. Affirmed.

J. Pryor vacates the original panel opinion in this case and substitutes the instant opinion denying the immigrant's petition for review of the decision to remove him to Jamaica after he was convicted of aggravated felonies. The immigrant was brought to the United States by his father, who is a naturalized citizen, and was admitted as a lawful permanent resident. The immigrant claimed that a provision of a statute disallowing naturalized unmarried fathers from transmitting citizenship to their children violates the equal protection guarantee of the Fifth Amendment by discriminating based on race and sex. The immigrant would not have derived citizenship from his father even if the provision treated mothers and fathers the same. The immigrant's mother never naturalized and the mother's maternity was established, therefore the sex classification did not affect the denial of his citizenship claim.

Per curiam, the circuit finds that the district court improperly dismissed civil rights claims by an inmate who objected to being exposed to secondhand smoke at a county jail. The inmate named jail personnel who allegedly acted with deliberate indifference to tobacco and K2 synthetic cannabinoid smoke, which was acknowledged as present and difficult to curb. Meanwhile, the inmate should be allowed to amend certain claims against supervisory personnel.

J. Shorr finds the trial court failed to strike certain statements made by the prosecutor to convict defendant of attempted second-degree murder and other crimes. “The prosecutor’s reference to a statement that was not admitted in evidence, and invitation to the jury to infer that the contents of that statement would not have benefitted defendant…deprived defendant of a fair trial.” Reversed.
Court: Oregon Court of Appeals, Judge: Shorr, Filed On: February 7, 2024, Case #: A177836, Categories: Murder, Prosecutorial Misconduct
J. Powers finds the trial court erred in ruling that he forcefully prevented officers from arresting his friend. “Although defendant temporarily created a barrier between the officers and [the friend], defendant’s actions did not rise to the level of ‘force.’” Reversed.

J. Robart grants the driver's motion to remand his complaint alleging that the insurance company must pay more than the offered $600,000 to settle their underlying lawsuit involving a car collision. The insurance company argues that its client's citizenship should be ignored because she is a nominal party or was fraudulently joined, but neither issue provides an exception to the one-year deadline for removal that the insurance company missed.

J. Wilder-Doomes denies a request by the parish government of Baton Rouge to halt multiple civil rights suits alleging city police officers used a warehouse to strip-search and humiliate citizens during purported searches for illegal drugs. The parish has not established a stay of civil proceedings against officers of the street crimes unit at the so-called “BRAVE Cave” is warranted. No criminal charges have been filed and there is no information regarding the nature or extent of the overlap with any federal criminal investigation. However, the parish may re-urge its request for a stay, “if appropriate, as additional information develops.”

J. Currault grants a request by a T.J. Maxx store allowing it to withdraw admissions to facts that had been deemed admitted when it responded past a deadline to a litigant's discovery requests for her slip and fall suit. Allowing the store to withdraw the deemed admissions at the early stage of the litigation is proper. Withdrawal of the deemed admissions is favored, as it will allow for resolution of the litigant's suit on its merits rather than procedural error. Further, withdrawal will not hurt the litigant's case, despite her protests of the store counsel's "abuses of professional courtesies."
