Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stephen A. Higginson, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Greg Gerard Guidry, New Orleans, LA, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

John R. Martzell, Duggan Fowler Ellis, Martzell & Bickford, New Orleans, LA, for Defendant-Appellant.

Before DUHÉ and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges, and COBB, District Judge.


HOWELL COBB, District Judge:

A jury in the federal district court for the Eastern District of Louisiana convicted the defendant for violations of 18 U.S.C. §§ 2, 1951, 1952, and 1956, resulting from the misuse of his official position as Parish President of the St. John the Baptist Parish, Louisiana. Millet challenges his convictions on a variety of theories. Finding no merit in any of these theories, we affirm.
