"... A federal appeals court panel reversed the insider-trading
conviction of Joseph P. Nacchio, the former chief executive
of Qwest Communications International, on Monday and ordered
that Mr. Nacchio receive a new trial in front of a different
judge.
" Judge Paul J. Kelly and Judge Michael W. McConnell of
the United States Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit
ruled for the majority in a 2-to-1 decision that a federal
district court judge had wrongly excluded an expert witness
for Mr. Nacchio during his trial last year."
