United States v. Joseph Mabery

GERRARD, District Judge.

Joseph Mabery was convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(e)(1). The district court 2 sentenced Mabery to 327 months’ imprisonment. Mabery appeals, contending that evidence of the firearm should have been suppressed, that the evidence was insufficient to sustain his conviction, and that his sentence is excessive. Finding no merit to Mabery’s contentions, we affirm his conviction and sentence.
