Abstract:
In the case of United States v. Robinson et al, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit in an opinion dated March 18, 1988, affirmed the conviction of three defendants for unlawful possession of marijuana with intent to distribute. The opinion is interesting for professionals following international criminal law because the Court discusses the protective principle in narcotics cases in detail, but refrains from ruling on its use.
