December 11, 1997
Before DUHÉ, DeMOSS, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Joe Wesley Crosslin appeals his conviction and sentence for
distribution of cocaine base. He argues that the district court
abused its discretion in allowing an unduly suggestive in-court
identification and by imposing a fine beyond his ability to pay.
The district court did not commit reversible error in allowing the
in-court identification. Chapman v. California, 386 U.S. 18, 24-25

Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
