United States v. Michael H. O'Keefe

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided February 3, 1984No. 83-3174PublishedCited by 36 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

GEE, Circuit Judge:

Defendant Michael O’Keefe was convicted by a jury of one count of mail fraud and two counts of obstruction of justice. On appeal, he claims (1) that the jury was impermissibly prejudiced by information concerning an earlier trial and conviction, (2) that the district court’s denial of a change of venue deprived him of a fair trial, and (3) that the evidence was insufficient to support any of the three counts. Finding no merit in these contentions, we affirm O’Keefe’s conviction.
