    40 F.3d 164 (7th Cir. 1994)   Cited 31 times
    Affirming decision to exclude evidence that defendant postal worker did not steal a "test letter" in the mail one month after being confronted about earlier unlawful conduct

    To prove that Hill violated 18 U.S.C. § 510(a), the government had to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that (1) Hill passed, uttered, or published a United States treasury check; (2) the check bore a falsely made or forged endorsement; (3) Hill knew at the time of the passing of the check that the endorsement was falsely made or forged; and (4) Hill passed the check with the intent to defraud. 18 U.S.C. § 510(a); United States v. Williams, 850 F.2d 142, 144-45 (3d Cir. 1988); United States v. Treadway, 748 F. Supp. 396, 401 n. 8 (W.D.N.C. 1990). Hill does not dispute that Henry's check was cashed on a forged endorsement, but argues that the government failed to prove that she cashed it.
