UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee,
v.
Jose Ismael OCHOA, a/k/a Alberto Mandujano, Defendant-Appellant.
No. 95-50368.
United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
Submitted Nov. 5, 1996.*
Decided Nov. 7, 1996.
Before: PREGERSON, REINHARDT, and T.G. NELSON, Circuit Judges.
MEMORANDUM**
Jose Ismael Ochoa appeals his convictions for being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) and being a felon in possession of an unregistered firearm in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 5861(d). Ochoa contends that there was insufficient evidence to support his convictions. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.1
Ochoa did not move for judgment of acquittal at trial and thus has failed to preserve his contention on appeal. See United States v. Hanson, 2 F.3d 942, 945 (9th Cir.1993); United States v. Reyes-Alvarado, 963 F.2d 1184, 1187 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 506 U.S. 890 (1992). Therefore, we will only review the sufficiency of the evidence to prevent "a manifest miscarriage of justice." Hanson, 2 F.3d at 945 (citation omitted); see also Reyes-Alvarado, 963 F.2d at 1187. Because Ochoa has not shown that a failure to reverse his convictions will result in "a manifest miscarriage of justice," we will not address his contention. See Hanson, 2 F.3d at 945; Reyes-Alvarado, 963 F.2d at 1187.
AFFIRMED.
The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir.R. 36-3
Based on our disposition of this appeal, we deny the government's motion for transmittal of exhibits to this court. We also deny Ochoa's motion for appointment of new counsel
