US V. R. Parks 1974

According to Bethel University (2010) the logic that the appeal courts used to reach the conclusion that the conviction was an error was that the defendants was powerless (2010). It was also noted that Mr.Parks was tried on the theory that he was a corporate officer,who under the law, bore a relationship to the receipt and storage of food which would subject him to criminal liability. It was also noted that Parks appealed his conviction alleging that made error of instruction to the jury (U.S. v. R. Parks, 1974).
