United States Second Circuit
US v. Yannotti, 065571
Conviction and sentence for conspiring to engage in racketeering in violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) are affirmed over claims of error that: 1) the evidence was not legally sufficient to establish defendant's conviction for RICO conspiracy; 2) the district court erred in admitting the contents of two intercepted phone calls and allowing a witness to interpret those phone calls; 3) one of the racketeering acts alleged in the indictment was improperly vague; and 4) the district court erred in rendering his sentence.
