Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Appellant appeals from a judgment convicting him of a violation of the Motor Vehicle Theft Act [18 U.S.C.A. §§ 2311-2313].

The testimony and circumstances in the case clearly required that the question of guilt be determined by the jury, and the Court properly overruled the defendant’s motion for a judgment of acquittal. The remaining assignments of error, neither separately, nor collectively, as contended by the defendant to constitute a “totality” of error, show cause authorizing the grant of a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.
