Trade Secret, Computer Fraud Defendant Denied Coram Nobis On Appeal

Mealey's (August 7, 2018, 12:48 PM EDT) -- SAN FRANCISCO — A Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals panel on Aug. 2 ruled that a federal district court did not err in denying a petition for a writ of error coram nobis and motion for release of materials pursuant to U.S. Supreme Court precedent filed by a man convicted of computer fraud and trade secret misappropriation because such relief is not available until “a petitioner ‘already has fully served [his] sentence’” (United States of America v. David Nosal, No. 18-10089, 9th Cir., 2018 U.S. App. LEXIS 21476)....
