Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard House Kyle, Jr. , argued, Minneapolis, MN, for appellant.

Lisa D. Kirkpatrick , AUSA, argued, St. Paul, MN, for appellee.

Before RILEY, Chief Judge, JOHN R. GIBSON and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.


RILEY, Chief Judge.

Donald Ray Tate appeals his conviction, after a jury trial, for being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Tate argues there is insufficient evidence to support his conviction and, in the alternative, he is entitled to a new trial because the government withheld material impeachment evidence. Tate also challenges his mandatory minimum fifteen-year prison sentence. We affirm.
