Manuel Calixto Rojas De Diaz, A/K/A Carlos Rojas v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided November 2, 1965 · Tuttle, Thornberry, Carswell
352 F.2d 76; 1965 U.S. App. LEXIS 4097 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Manuel Calixto Rojas De Diaz, A/K/A Carlos Rojas v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This appeal attacks the conviction and sentence of appellant on the sole ground of insufficiency of the evidence. The conviction was based largely upon the testimony of a Federal Narcotics Bureau agent.

We conclude that the testimony of this agent, together with corroborating evidence, touching the time and place of the several transactions, was sufficient to meet the test. We are unable to determine that reasonable minds could not find that the evidence excludes every hypothesis but that of guilt. Kaplan v. United States, 9th Cir., 329 F.2d 561, 563.

The judgment is affirmed.
