1Opinion of the Court
DENNIS, Circuit Judge:
A single jury convicted the defendant-appellant, Mr. Wayne Burbridge, of two crimes committed on separate occasions: possession of a firearm by a previously-convicted felon and bank robbery. 1 He appeals both convictions on the ground that the district court failed to suppress evidence obtained in violation of the Constitution.
