United States v. Douglas Houston and John Lewis Simpson

402 F.2d 269

Opinion

ORDER

Defendants-appellants were convicted for having possession of certain distilled spirits in containers not bearing stamps evidencing tax payment in violation of 26 U.S.C. §§ 5205(a) (2) and 5604(a). In this appeal from such conviction defendants-appellants contend that the' District Court erred in overruling their motion to suppress evidence, in permitting the appellee to rely on probable cause in making a search, and in not requiring the appellee to reveal the identity of its paid informer. We find the contentions to be without merit, and accordingly,

It is ordered that the judgments of the District Court be, and they hereby are, affirmed.
