Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 89 F.3d 842 (8th Cir. 1996) Submitted June 7, 1996. Filed June 11, 1996

Before BEAM, LOKEN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Roger D. Wilson appeals from the district court's1  order dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to vacate his sentence. In the motion, Wilson claimed that his criminal conviction for money laundering was barred under the Double Jeopardy Clause by the civil forfeiture of his property.

After carefully reviewing the parties' briefs and the record, we conclude that the dismissal of Wilson's section 2255 motion was correct. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
