No. 99-1199
UNITED STATES,
Appellee,
v.
JUAN ANTONIO DE LA CRUZ MOYA,
Defendant, Appellant.
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF PUERTO RICO
[Hon. Juan M. Perez-Gimenez, U.S. District Judge]
Before
Torruella, Chief Judge,
Campbell, Senior Circuit Judge,
and Lynch, Circuit Judge.
Lawrence H. Schoenbach and Marc X. LoPresti on brief for
appellant.
Guillermo Gil, United States Attorney, Jorge E. Vega-Pacheco,
Assistant United States Attorney, and Michelle Morales, Assistant
United States Attorney, on brief for appellee.
June 7, 1999
Per Curiam. Upon careful review of the briefs and
record, we conclude that the district court properly denied
defendant's motion to dismiss the indictment. We reach this
conclusion essentially for the reasons stated in the district
court's Opinion and Order dated January 12, 1999. Defendant
failed to produce even "some evidence tending to prove that .
. . one sovereign was a pawn of the other." United States v.
Guzman, 85 F.3d 823, 827 (1st Cir. 1996).
Affirmed. See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
