No. 97-4794.

197 F.3d 1318 (1999)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Carlos CUCHET, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.

December 14, 1999.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Eric M. Cohen, Miami, FL, for Defendant-Appellant.

Thomas E. Scott, U.S. Atty., Evelio J. Yera and Suzan H. Ponzoli, Asst. U.S. Attys., Miami, FL, Robert N. Nicholson, Asst. U.S. Atty., Ft. Lauderdale, FL, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

Before EDMONDSON and MARCUS, Circuit Judges, and ALARCON, Senior Circuit Judge.


EDMONDSON, Circuit Judge:

Defendant appeals his convictions and sentences for multiple narcotics offenses. We conclude that the district court likely did err in excluding Defendant, over his express objection, from a part of the confidential voir dire of prospective jurors conducted at the bench. But, because the error was harmless, we affirm Defendant's convictions. We also affirm Defendant's sentences.
