Maurice DEANS, Appellant,
v.
UNITED STATES of America, Appellee.
No. 18417.
United States Court of Appeals District of Columbia Circuit.
July 6, 1964, Rehearing Denied en Banc Dec. 18, 1964.

Mr. Martin R. Hoffman, Asst. U.S. Atty., with whom Messrs. David C. Acheson, U.S. Atty., Frank Q. Nebeker and William H. Collins, Jr., Asst. U.S. Attys., were on the brief, for appellee.
Mr. Robert Perry, Asst. U.S. Atty., also entered an appearance for appellee.
Before EDGERTON, Senior Circuit Judge, and WASHINGTON and BURGER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
This cause came on to be heard on the record on appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, and was argued by counsel.
Although the delay between the time of some of the offenses and the time of the arrest was substantial, the testimony of the defendant-appellant demonstrated his ability to recall the details of the transactions, and thus tended to negate prejudice from the delay; and moreover, the sentences imposed were concurrent, see Hirabayshi v. United States, 320 U.S. 81, 63 S. Ct. 1375, 87 L. Ed. 1774 (1943); and the court concludes that no error occurred affecting substantial rights, it is
Ordered and adjudged by this court that the judgment of the District Court on appeal in this cause is hereby affirmed.
