United States v. Strader

Opinion

UNPUBLISHED

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 09-5118

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff – Appellee,

v.

JOSHUA STRADER,

Defendant – Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. David C. Norton, Chief District Judge. (2:08-cr-01152-DCN-1)

Submitted: July 26, 2010 Decided: August 23, 2010

Before GREGORY, AGEE, and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Mary Gordon Baker, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Charleston, South Carolina, for Appellant. Kevin F. McDonald, Acting United States Attorney, Matthew J. Modica, Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Joshua Strader appeals his jury conviction for

possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in violation of

18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) (2006). On appeal, Strader attacks the

sufficiency of the evidence to support the jury's verdict. * We

have reviewed the record, and viewing the evidence in the light

most favorable to the Government, we find sufficient evidence to

support Strader's conviction. See United States v. Jeffers,

570 F.3d 557, 565 (4th Cir. 2009), cert. denied, 130 S. Ct. 645

(2009). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment.

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

* Strader was also convicted of possession of a controlled substance; however, he does not appeal that conviction.
