United States v. Labuff

104 F. App'x 647

Opinion

MEMORANDUM

**

Labuff s request for consolidation of this case with his other appeal is now moot because his other appeal has been decided.¹ His ineffective-assistance argument fails because the decision in his appeal of the companion case establishes that the motion to suppress that his attorney in this case failed to make would not have succeeded.²

AFFIRMED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
