Description
James M. Allen was convicted of mail fraud and conspiracy to commit mail fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. ?? 1341 and 371. Those convictions were affirmed by an en banc panel of this court in United States v. Blanton, 719 F.2d 815 (6th Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 465 U.S. 1099, 80 L. Ed. 2d 125, 104 S. Ct. 1592 (1984), prior to the Supreme Courts decision in McNally v. United States, 483 U.S. 350, 107 S. Ct. 2875, 97 L. Ed. 2d 292 (1987). He was sentenced to two years imprisonment and fined $8,000. Relying upon McNally, Allen sought from the district court a writ of error coram nobis to set aside those convictions, and restitution of the fine he had paid. It is from the granting of that relief by the district court that the government appeals.
