United States Second Circuit

Conviction for securities fraud, fraud against the United States, and making false statements is reversed and remanded for a new trial where: 1) there was insufficient evidence for a rational jury to conclude that defendant's false statements to the Department of the Treasury were material; and 2) the district court exceeded its discretion in excluding portions of defendant's proffered expert testimony and that error was not harmless.
