More on how this was screened

Later opinions applied Vandergrift's sentencing and review rules or described its recognition that Tapia displaced an earlier holding in United States v. Brown; none adversely treated Vandergrift.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

28 later cases cite United States v. Walter Henry Vandergrift, Jr.; 28 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.
