UNITED STATES v. LANG

Nos. 75-1524, 75-1525.

527 F.2d 1264 (1975)

UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. James Andrew LANG et al., Appellants. UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Otha Lee LOWE, Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Decided November 4, 1975.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

W. J. Chandler, Jr., Charlotte, N. C. [Court-appointed] (William M. Claytor, Charlotte, N. C. [Court-appointed], on brief), for appellants.

Douglas M. Martin, Asst. U. S. Atty. (Keith S. Snyder, U. S. Atty., on brief), for appellee.

Before BOREMAN, Senior Circuit Judge, and CRAVEN and FIELD, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

This is an appeal by four persons convicted of bank robbery—Huntley and Lowe as aiders and abettors to principals Lang and Harris.

It is not error to refuse motions for severance where there is no suggestion that joinder will result in prejudice. Nor may these defendants successfully claim error in that the district court in its discretion severed the trial of a fifth defendant who subsequently testified as a government witness.
