United States v. Aaron Dewayne Goodface

JOHN R. GIBSON, Circuit Judge.

This appeal arises from the conviction of Aaron Dewayne Goodface for assault with a dangerous weapon, 18 U.S.C. § 113(c) (1982), and use of a firearm during a crime of violence, 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) (Supp. Ill 1985). Goodface argues that the district court erred in refusing to instruct the jury on self-defense, and that the mandatory sentencing provision of the firearms statute violates due process and conflicts with the statutory scheme for crimes committed in Indian country, 18 U.S.C. § 1153 (Supp. Ill 1985). We affirm the judgment entered by the district court. 1
