MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Solomon, 956 F.2d 276 (9th Cir. 1992):
The government may "refuse to accept a defense counsel's stipulation and elect instead to prove the elements of the offense by introducing probative evidence." United States v. Chambers, 918 F.2d 1455, 1462 (9th Cir.1990). The videotape segment was probative; the facts the government sought to prove with it were elements of the crimes with which Solomon was charged.
