Unpublished Dispositionunited States of America v. Curtis Cook, A/k/a Marcell Davis, A/k/a Charles Jenkins, Appellant, 862 F.2d 361 (D.C. Cir. 1988)

This case was considered on appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on briefs filed by the parties and argument by counsel. The Court has determined that the issues presented occasion no need for an opinion. See D.C. Cir. Rule 14(c). Defendant claims that the trial court should have excluded the testimony of a witness under Rules 403 and 404(b) of the Federal Rules of Evidence. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in admitting the evidence, however, because the probative value of the testimony is not substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice. See United States v. Foskey, 636 F.2d 517 (D.C. Cir. 1980). Any discrepancies between the government's proffer and proof are irrelevant to this determination. For these reasons, it is

ORDERED and ADJUDGED, by the Court, that the defendant-appellant Cook's convictions are affirmed. It is

FURTHER ORDERED, by the Court, sua sponte, that the Clerk shall withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C. Cir. Rule 15(b) (2).
