United States v. McWaine
Opinion
Derwin Renwick McWaine, federal prisoner # 10797-042, appeals the district court’s denial of his motion for an evidentiary hearing and immediate release, apparently brought under Fed. R.Crim. P. 33. McWaine alleged that Officer David Sullivan presented false information in obtaining a search warrant for his residence and that Officer Ronnie Jones was indicted and convicted after McWaine’s trial. McWaine has not shown that the district court abused its discretion in denying his motion as he has not shown that his motion is based on new evidence unknown despite due diligence on his part, that the evidence is material, or that the evidence would probably have produced an acquittal. See United States v. Sullivan, 112 F.3d 180, 182-83 (5th Cir.1997). Therefore, the district court’s denial of McWaine’s motion is AFFIRMED.
