Opinion
On direct appeal, Spinelli’s conviction was affirmed, United States v. Spinelli, 443 F.2d 2, decided May 17, 1971.
Here we consider the denial of a motion for a new trial based upon the presence on the jury of two jurors who had been on one Battaglia’s criminal trial (Battaglia was .acquitted) where the name of one Spinelli was mentioned in an unfavorable light.
We affirm, finding in context that the presence of the two jurors was not a serious thing or error as a matter of law.
