Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 108 F.3d 1382 (8th Cir. 1997) Submitted: March 14, 1997Decided March 19, 1997

Before FAGG and HEANEY, Circuit Judges, and NANGLE,*  District

PER CURIAM.


Javier Herrera-Venegas appeals his conviction for illegal reentry of a deported alien. Herrera-Venegas contends he was not competent to stand trial and the district court improperly admitted Herrera-Venegas's admission that he was an illegal alien. We disagree. Because an extensive discussion of Herrera-Venegas's fact-specific arguments is not warranted, we affirm his conviction without a comprehensive opinion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

The Honorable John F. Nangle, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, sitting by designation
