United States v. Nolder

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

We review the sufficiency of a charging document de novo.1 The citation issued to Nolder was sufficient, it contained the elements of the offense and sufficiently ap*555prised Nolder of the allegations she was required to meet.2

Review of a conviction challenged for insufficient evidence is also reviewed de novo.3 Under the Jackson v. Virginia standard, the evidence sufficed for a conviction, because a reasonable juror could conclude that the defendant resisted the officer’s lawful orders to step away from the tent and put her hands behind her back.4

AFFIRMED.
