United States Second Circuit

Conviction of five counts of bank fraud is remanded for hearing on issue of possible juror bias after revelation of a professional relationship between the juror, the juror's husband, and the prosecutor's husband. Sentence is vacated as it was imposed under the mandatory Sentencing Guidelines and violated Booker, and there was error in the district court-s summarizing a government witness' substance abuse treatment records while denying access to the records themselves.
