How later courts describe this case

  • Ewing “does not give the defendant the right to present an unopposed Rule 35 motion. The government violates Ewing only when its opposition violates the essence of the plea bargain.”
  • jury could conclude that transfer was an integral part of the illegal interstate movement even though stolen goods came to rest in one state
  • Congress’ delegation to Attorney General and his subdelegation to DEA is not unconstitutionally vague nor does it violate the doctrine of separation of powers

  • juror with difficulty understanding English language
  • federal UCSA involves no improper delegation
