US v. Halloran, 15-996

Convictions of wire fraud, 18 U.S.C. sections 1343 and 1346, violating the Travel Act, 18 U.S.C. section 1952, and conspiracy to commit both substantive offenses, 18 U.S.C. section 371, are affirmed over defendant's meritless challenges: 1) to sufficiency of the evidence; 2) that brokering the payment of bribes in exchange for the issuance of a Wilson‐Pakula does not violate New York's bribery laws, as required for his Travel Act conviction; and 3) that the honest‐services fraud statute is unconstitutionally vague as applied to that conduct.
