Heading: Prosecution Failed to Follow Court Orders

Text: 55 Thierman also contends that the prosecutor failed to follow court orders by expanding a witness' testimony beyond GHB, failing to provide a memo adopted by a witness until the day before the witness testified, and failing to provide an expert's resume prior to the time that expert testified. None of these assignments requires further discussion. 56 The memo adopted by witness Byrd was turned over a day prior to Byrd's testimony due to an inadvertence on the government's part. The district court did not question the prosecution's integrity regarding this delay, and Thierman has given us no reason to do so. The government also points out that regardless of any order by the district court, it had no duty to turn over the material earlier. U.S. v. Spagnuolo, 515 F.2d 818, 821 (9th Cir.1975). 57
