Robert H. Ellis v. United States
Opinion
Appellant, having waived a jury trial, was found guilty and convicted of operating a lottery in violation of the District of Columbia lottery statutes. 1
On appeal he contends first that number slips and other gambling paraphernalia were seized under warrants which were not supported by a showing of adequate probable cause; and second that the evidence was insufficient to sustain a conviction of operating the lottery.
Our examination of the record and consideration of appellant’s contentions satisfy us that there was no error.
Affirmed.
