UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Cynthia Bennett EVANS, also known as Cindy, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

July 24, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Renee E. Harris, Fort Worth, TX, Delonia Anita Watson, Christopher Allen Curtis, Asst. U.S. Atty., Dallas, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

Gregory Burke Westfall, Jeff Kearney & Associates, Fort Worth, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.

Before REAVLEY, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.


DeMOSS, Circuit Judge:

Cynthia Bennett Evans appeals from her conviction and sentence on charges of mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1341. Because the alleged mailings did not, as the statute requires, serve Evans's purpose of executing her scheme to defraud her employer of her honest and faithful services, we reverse the mail fraud convictions and vacate that sentence. The judgment of the district court is in all other aspects affirmed.

I.
