How later courts describe this case

  • interpreting identical language in Fed. R.Crim.Proc. 31 and holding that a “valid verdict requires it be returned by the jury to the judge in open court”
  • applying federal law and stating that a pretrial motion for change of venue need be made only where defect is apparent on the face of the indictment
