United States Third Circuit


US v. Soto, 07-2643

Conviction for aiding and abetting the making of false statements to a federal firearms licensee is affirmed over objections that: 1) the evidence was insufficient to support the conviction; 2) the question of whether the forms filled out by the alleged principal as required by the licensee, on which she had allegedly lied, were statutorily-required records was a jury question; and 3) even if the record-keeping question was a question of law, the forms in question were not required records.
