U.S. v. BLACKSTONE

No. 94-10428.

56 F.3d 1143 (1995)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Dennis William BLACKSTONE, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided June 7, 1995.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Judith Nancy Rosenberg, Asst. Federal Public Defender, Tucson, AZ, for defendant-appellant.

Claire K. Lefkowitz, Asst. U.S. Atty., Tucson, AZ, for plaintiff-appellee.

Before: GOODWIN, POOLE, and KLEINFELD, Circuit Judges.


GOODWIN, Circuit Judge:

Dennis Blackstone appeals his conviction for possession of a firearm by a felon, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). He claims the district court erred in 1) admitting overly prejudicial evidence of drug paraphernalia, expert testimony connecting guns and drugs, and the nature of his prior conviction; 2) refusing to allow surrebuttal testimony; and 3) refusing to suppress evidence of the search of his truck and his pre-Miranda statements.
