UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
HUEY ANDY NGUYEN,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-98-CR-226-1
--------------------
April 14, 2000
Before WIENER, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Huey Andy Nguyen appeals his conviction for bank robbery.
Nguyen argues that the district court abused its discretion when
it allowed evidence of a prior criminal act provided by two
witnesses. Nguyen argues that the evidence was extrinsic and
that the evidence had little probative value and was highly
prejudicial.
The evidence was intrinsic because the evidence of a prior
criminal act was inextricably intertwined with Trung Nguyen’s
decision to help Nguyen rob the bank. See United States v.
*
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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
No. 99-20464
