U.S. 5th Circuit Removes "Unduly Harsh Language" From Opinion

The 5th Circuit in New Orleans agreed to remove what it called "unduly harsh language" from its written rejection of ex-Louisiana Senate President Michael O'Keefe's request for a new trial. The Advocate reports that the court agreed to remove a description referring to one of O'Keefe's arguments as "highly misleading and a mischaracterization of the record."
