June 15, 1999
Before EMILIO M. GARZA, BENAVIDES, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Alfredo Alvarez Camarena appeals his jury conviction for
conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. Appellant argues that
the district court abused its discretion when it denied his
motion for new trial on the basis of newly discovered evidence.
We have reviewed the record and the briefs of the parties
and hold that the district court did not abuse its discretion in
denying the motion for new trial. United States v. Jaramillo, 42
F.3d 920, 924 (5th Cir. 1995); United States v. Time, 21 F.3d
635, 642-43 (5th Cir. 1994).
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
R. 47.5.4.
