No. 06-51528.

514 F.3d 433 (2008)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. John C. SKELTON, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

January 17, 2008.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mara A. Blatt (argued), Joseph H. Gay, Jr., Asst. U.S. Atty., San Antonio, TX, for U.S.

David L. Botsford (argued), Law Office of David L. Botsford, Austin, TX, for Skelton.

Before KING, BARKSDALE and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.

DENNIS, Circuit Judge:

The primary issue in this criminal case is whether the district court's limitations on cross-examination violated the defendant's Sixth Amendment confrontation right and right to present a complete defense. After careful review of the district court's evidentiary rulings, we affirm the defendant's conviction.
