Changes to Federal Rule 29?
Today I heard about a proposed amendment to Fed. Rule of Criminal Procedure 29 that will prevent judges from granting MJOAs at the close of the government’s case-in-chief unless defendants agree to allow the government to appeal.
Seems really strange and I haven’t been able to find anything about it. Anyone know anything?

There was a proposed change, but it didn’t make it into the rules.
