*OVERVIEW*
* *7 cases*
* *1 published decisions*
* *6 unpublished decisions*
*Before we get to last week’s opinions, I wanted to give you this note from the outstanding Federal Public Defenders Conrad Kahn and Jim Skuthan out of Orlando. The important precedential decision in Eugene Jackson was vacated by the 11th Circuit on September 8th and the Court ordered supplemental briefing. In Eugene Jackson, the 11th Circuit recently held that pre-July 2017 Florida cocaine convictions are not “serious drug offenses” under the Armed Career Criminal Act. But apparently the Court wants to revisit the issue. *
*So, Eugene Jackson is no longer good law, but the issue is also not foreclosed by precedent. So, you can still argue that a pre July 2017 Florida cocaine conviction under 893.13 is not a “serious drug offense” and we will see how the 11th Circuit ultimately rules in the Eugene Jackson decision. *
