Lyle W. Cayce Clerk THOMAS A. NELSON, JR., Defendant Appellant Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana USDC No. 3:10-CR-99-1 Before DAVIS, SOUTHWICK, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Appellant Thomas. A. Nelson Jr. appeals the district court s denial of his request for release pending the resolution of his appeal of his conviction and sentence in case number 12-30101.

R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. * Case: 12-30895 Document: 00512484725 Page: 2 Date Filed: 12/30/2013 No. 12-30895 Alanis, 483 F.3d 381, 382 (5th Cir. 2007); see also United States v.
