United States v. Drew
United States v. Drew
Opinion of the Court
JUDGMENT
This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on the briefs filed by the parties. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2); D.C.Cir. Rule 34(j). It is
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s judgment filed September 12, 2007, be affirmed. Appel
Nor did the district court abuse its discretion when it sustained the government’s objection to proposed testimony of a police detective about statements made by a non-testifying victim during a 911 call and a police interview, because those statements were not proper impeachment evidence of any government witness. See Fed.R.Evid. 613(b). Furthermore, appellant’s claims that the government conspired to obtain his conviction by knowingly sponsoring perjured testimony, and coaching witnesses to provide such testimony, are not supported by the record. Finally, the arguments presented in appellant’s brief in support of his ineffective assistance of counsel claims are not sufficient to warrant a remand to the district court in accordance with United States v. Rashad, 331 F.3d 908 (D.C.Cir. 2003). We otherwise express no opinion about the merits of appellant’s ineffective assistance of counsel claims.
Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published. The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after resolution of any timely petition for rehearing or petition for rehearing en banc. See Fed. R.App. P. 41(b); D.C.Cir. Rule 41.
