U.S. v. JONES

No. 07-3070.

567 F.3d 712 (2009)

UNITED STATES of America, Appellee v. Duane Phillip JONES, also known as Chicken Jones, Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit.

Decided June 9, 2009.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mary E. Davis, appointed by the court, argued the cause and filed the briefs for appellant.

Nicholas P. Coleman, Assistant U.S. Attorney, argued the cause for appellee. On the brief were Jeffrey A. Taylor, U.S. Attorney, and Roy W. McLeese III, Mary B. McCord, and Michael T. Ambrosino, Assistant U.S. Attorneys.

Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge GARLAND.


GARLAND, Circuit Judge:

A jury convicted Duane Phillip Jones of gun and drug crimes. Jones contends that he is entitled to a new trial for two reasons. First, he argues that the district court erred in failing to suppress a statement he made at the time of his arrest. Second, he maintains that the government improperly disclosed inadmissible information to the jury. We find no error on either ground, and we therefore affirm Jones' convictions.
