United States v. Walter Robert Dickson
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided June 13, 1972 · Butzner, Russell, Field
462 F.2d 184; 1972 U.S. App. LEXIS 9035 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

United States v. Walter Robert Dickson

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Walter Robert Dickson appeals his conviction for the interstate transportation of a falsely made and forged security in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2314. Finding no error we affirm.

The definition of a security in 18 U.S.C. § 2311 includes a document “transferring or assigning any right, title, or interest in or to goods, wares, and merchandise . . .’’On consideration of the briefs, record, and argument, we conclude that the district court properly ruled that this definition of a security embraced a “statement of source of title” of a motor vehicle and that the evidence was sufficient to sustain the judgment.

Affirmed.
