RYAN, Circuit Judge.
Defendant, Norbert Breinig, together with his former wife, Joan Moore, was charged with violating 26 U.S.C. § 7201 by wilfully attempting to evade and defeat federal income taxes for the years 1986 and 1987. The district court ordered a joint trial of the defendants. Because he anticipated that there would be antagonistic defenses, Breinig moved for severance and a separate trial under Fed.R.Crim.P. 14, which the district court denied.
