Appeal from United States District Court, Southern District of Alabama; Sherrill Halbert, Senior District Judge.
Before THORNBERRY, MORGAN and CLARK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
On this appeal, the appellant asserts error by the District Court because: (1) a certain portion of a transcript of testimony by a witness at a preliminary hearing in which the appellant was not a party was excluded by the District Court; (2) the United States Attorney's office failed to locate a missing witness for the defense counsel; and (3) the District Court refused to continue the case because of the absence of this witness.
A perusal of the record in the case at hand shows no merit in any of appellant's contentions, and the District Court is hereby
Affirmed.
