United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

March 11, 1977.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Church E. Murdock, Jr., pro se.

Wayman G. Sherrer, U.S. Atty., Melton L. Alexander, Asst. U.S. Atty., Birmingham, Ala., Scott P. Crampton, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tax Div., Gilbert E. Andrews, Chief Appellate Sect., Robert E. Lindsay, Atty., Wynette J. Hewett, Atty., Dept. of Justice, Washington, D. C., for plaintiff-appellee.

Before AINSWORTH, CLARK and RONEY, Circuit Judges.


RONEY, Circuit Judge:

Dr. Church E. Murdock appeals his conviction for willfully failing to file federal income tax returns for three years. The sole issue presented by Murdock's brief is this: "whether the trial judge erred by withholding documents from defendant in evidentiary hearing which could have sustained his motion to quash indictment on grounds of selective and discriminatory prosecution." Finding no error in the rulings of the trial judge, we affirm.
