Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

G. Scott Gardner, Williamsport, PA, Counsel for Appellee.

Before: ALITO, McKEE, and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges.

OPINION OF THE COURT

McKEE, Circuit Judge.

The government asks us to review the district court's order granting Tony Jake a new trial after a jury convicted him of conspiracy to obstruct justice by bribery. The district court awarded a new trial because of a perceived error in jury instructions regarding the statute of limitations. For the reasons that follow, we will reverse and remand for sentencing.1
