United States of America, and v. James Mumow Valentine, And

Ninth Circuit

United States of America, and v. James Mumow Valentine, And

472 F.2d 164

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit·Decided January 4, 1973·No. 72-1236·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The judgment of conviction in this marijuana importation case is affirmed.

All points in the attack on the composition of the trial jury have been heretofore resolved against the defendant in other eases in this circuit with the exception of the 40 mile rule on calling jurors. No showing is made that the rule is unreasonable or that defendant was prejudiced by it. Such a rule is authorized by 28 U.S.C. § 1863(b)(7).

We find the evidence of guilt was adequate. The refusal of the court to grant the motion for a mistrial was not error. The consecutive terms of imprisonment were proper. Cf. United States v. Bishop, 462 F.2d 127, 9 Cir. 1972.
