Read US v. Koch, 05-4263

In a matter involving the forfeiture of defendant's property, a decision finding that a failure to include a forfeiture provision in an initial criminal judgment was a clerical error subject to correction under Rule 36 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure is affirmed, as defendant breached his plea agreement by objecting to registration of the forfeiture orders in an Australian court, and by contesting the government's motion to amend in the district court and in the court of appeals.
