How later courts describe this case

  • declining to decide--in light of its finding that any error was harmless--whether the Confrontation Clause entitles defendant to impeach victim's own statements about her sexual history
  • "This Court finds that the Plan's reimbursement language is unambiguous, and . . . overrides the make whole rule."
  • “A party cannot invoke Rule 59(e) to raise arguments or evidence that could and should have been presented during the summary judgment process.”
