前伊利诺伊州众议院议长迈克尔·马迪根(Michael Madigan)的腐败审判在法律定义“腐败”的不确定性中继续进行。 Former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan's corruption trial continues amid uncertainty over the legal definition of "corruptly."
对前伊利诺伊州众议院议长Michael Madigan的腐败审判仍在继续,美国最高法院没有就“腐败”的定义提供指导,这是联邦贿赂法的核心术语。 The corruption trial of former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan continues without guidance from the U.S. Supreme Court on the definition of "corruptly," a term central to the federal bribery statute. 美国地区法院法官John Blakey裁定最高法院的裁决影响有限,使律师只能依赖原第七巡回上诉法院的先例。 U.S. District Judge John Blakey ruled the Supreme Court's decision has limited impact, leaving attorneys to rely on previous 7th Circuit Court of Appeals precedents. Madigan面临勒索和贿赂的指控,审判预计将在本月晚些时候结束。 Madigan faces charges of racketeering and bribery, with the trial expected to conclude later this month.
