United States v. Sergio Duran Badillagreen
ca10 · 2004 · cited in 1 Kansas opinions naming this issue, 2013–2013
1 sentence

2013He first states that “for a permissive presumption [instruction] to be justified, the facts of a particular case must be examined.” (Emphasis added.) But he then cites to a passage in United States v. Badilla, 383 F.3d 1137, 1140 (10th Cir. 2004): “ ‘A permissive inference instruction is valid if there is a rational connection between the fact that the prosecution proved and the ultimate fact presumed.’ ” (Emphasis added.) As stated, we are concerned with an inference instruction, not a presumption instruction.
