Leary v. United States
green
2 sentences1975In these cases the court was adhering to the Tot standard of “rational connection.” That standard was restated in Leary v. United States, 395 U. S. 6 (1969), which, after a careful consideration of the probability factors involved, reversed a conviction based on a permissive presumption that one in possession of marihuana knew that it was illegally imported. 1975The Leary case read the Tot standard to require that it could “be said with substantial assurance” that the presumed fact followed “more likely than not” from the primary fact. 395 U. S. at 36 . | 1 | 1975–1975 |
