United States v. Eddie Mervin Whittaker, Freddie Williams
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided August 19, 1971 · Chambers, Trask, Choy
443 F.2d 1371 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

United States v. Eddie Mervin Whittaker, Freddie Williams

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The judgments of conviction in this narcotics case are affirmed.

Appellants’ best point is a claim of prejudice in the dismissal of the indictment and reindictment — loss of witnesses.

We are unable to find that the district court’s finding of no prejudice from the delay was clearly erroneous.

The mandate will issue forthwith.
