U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals:  Ohio Cases

 

Albert M. Higley Co v. N/S Corporation (April 17, 2006) Appeal from N.D. Ohio
-  http://www.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf/06a0136p-06.pdf
-  N/S Corporation appeals the district court's denial of its motion to stay litigation and compel arbitration in a diversity action between itself and the Albert M. Higley Company. The issue before this Court is the interpretation of the arbitration clause in a contract between these two companies. For the foregoing reasons, we AFFIRM the district court's decision denying N/S's motion to stay the litigation and compel arbitration.
 

U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals: Other States Cases

 

USA v. Jones  (April 17, 2006) Appeal from E.D. Kentucky
-  http://www.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf/06a0135p-06.pdf
-  Defendant-Appellant Wayne Morgan Jones ("Jones") was sentenced to twelve months of imprisonment for defrauding and attempting to defraud a financial institution in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1344(1) and using another person's identity to commit this fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1028(a)(7) and (2). Jones appeals this sentence, arguing that the district court should have reduced his sentence pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines ("U.S.S.G") § 5K2.23 because he had already served a one-year state sentence for the same conduct. For the reasons stated below, we AFFIRM Jones' sentence.
