United States v. Dyess

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT _______________ No. 95-60321 Summary Calendar _______________ UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, VERSUS ROGER O. DYESS, Defendant-Appellant. _________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi (2:94-CR12PS-1) _________________________ November 24, 1995 Before KING, SMITH, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Roger O. Dyess argues that the district court abused its discretion in denying his motion for a mistrial based on the admission of extrinsic evidence of other crimes or bad acts allegedly committed by Dyess. We have reviewed the record, including the transcripts of the trial, and find no reversible error. Local Rule 47.5.1 provides: "The publication of opinions that have no precedential value and merely decide particular cases on the basis of well- settled principles of law imposes needless expense on the public and burdens on the legal profession." Pursuant to that rule, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published. AFFIRMED. 2
