Here, where the evidence clearly raised a question of whether the death and the injuries that caused it had occurred in New Jersey or Pennsylvania, the trial judge's failure to charge the jury on the element of territorial jurisdiction was plainly erroneous, despite the fact that defendant had presented no proofs or argument regarding the locus of the crime, had not requested a charge on the subject, and had not raised the issue of jurisdiction in the trial court.

The Man Behind the Democratic Assault on the DOJ

When Alberto Gonzales testifies in a make-or-break Senate committee hearing this week, the AG will face a man who is as responsible as anyone for bringing the DOJ leadership to its knees -- Preet Bharara, chief counsel to Sen.

Antitrust Trade and Practice

Neal R. Stoll and Shepard Goldfein, partners at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, write that the FTC has long advocated that a settlement where the patent holder pays the alleged infringer for deferring its entry is illegal under the antitrust laws.

Denial of Raise Is Ruled Unconstitutional

By failing to grant the state's judges a raise for 11 years, the Legislature has created a "crisis" that violates the separation of powers doctrine, the Court of Appeals ruled yesterday. However, the Court declined requests to order an immediate raise or to fashion another remedy for the constitutional breach other than the "appropriate and expeditious legislative consideration" of the issue on its merits alone.
