U.S. v. BREIER

No. 86-5140.

813 F.2d 212 (1987)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Donald Douglas BREIER, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided March 16, 1987.

Concurrence Filed March 23, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles C. Lee, Los Angeles, Cal., for plaintiff-appellee.

Theodora Poloynis-Engen, Alexander W. Kirkpatrick, Pasadena, Cal., for defendant-appellant.

Before SNEED, FARRIS and NOONAN, Circuit Judges.

SNEED, Circuit Judge:

Donald Breier appeals from his conviction of five violations of 18 U.S.C. § 922(a)(1), unlicensed dealing in firearms. Breier argues that the recently-enacted Firearms Owners' Protection Act should apply retroactively to his case, thereby warranting a new trial. Because we find that the federal savings clause, 1 U.S.C. § 109, mandates non-retroactivity, we affirm the judgment of conviction.
