U.S. v. BOLICK

No. 89-5047.

917 F.2d 135 (1990)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Michael Lee BOLICK, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Decided October 23, 1990.

As Amended November 6, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Neill A. Jennings, Jr., Greensboro, N.C., for defendant-appellant.

Thomas J. Ashcraft, U.S. Atty., W.D.N.C., Charlotte, N.C., for plaintiff-appellee.

Before RUSSELL, PHILLIPS, and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges.


MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judge:

Michael Bolick has appealed his conviction for conspiring to sell, and selling, cocaine. Bolick's primary contention is that the trial court impermissibly admitted prior consistent statements of government witnesses who had not yet been impeached. He also contends that the trial court impermissibly allowed the government to create a prejudicial "drug atmosphere" at trial under the guise of "background" evidence.
