United States First Circuit

In a habeas corpus action, the district court's denial of the petition is affirmed where\: 1) petitioner's trial counsel did not render ineffective assistance in failing to move for a judgment of acquittal based on insufficient evidence of a nexus to interstate commerce; and 2) no prejudice resulted because the outcome would have remained the same.
