The Tenth Circuit affirmed the denial of a federal prisoner's motion for release pending the resolution of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. The court held that Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 9 governs release in a criminal case but does not apply to release pending post-conviction relief.
The Eighth Circuit affirmed a district court's dismissal of a pro se plaintiff's complaint with prejudice. The appellate court found no abuse of discretion in imposing discovery sanctions for willful violations of court orders.
The Eighth Circuit affirmed the dismissal of a Truth in Lending Act claim but reversed the dismissal of a Fair Debt Collection Practices Act claim regarding a Minnesota mortgage foreclosure.

The Eighth Circuit affirmed a 300-month sentence for a defendant who coordinated the importation of hundreds of kilograms of methamphetamine from Mexico. The court held that the district court did not clearly err in applying enhancements for the defendant's role as a manager and for engaging in drug trafficking as a livelihood.
The Third Circuit vacated a conviction under the Procurement Integrity Act because the District Court accepted a guilty plea without a sufficient factual basis. The court held that disclosing information from a past procurement only violates the statute if that information is substantively identical to data submitted for a pending procurement.
The Third Circuit reversed a district court order compelling arbitration in a labor dispute over employee benefit contributions. The appellate court held that the grievance fell outside the scope of the collective bargaining agreement's arbitration clause because the claimed right did not arise from the contract itself.
