ON MOTION OF APPELLEE FOR SUMMARY AFFIRMANCE
Before RIVES, BELL and DYER, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:
The sole issue presented on this appeal is whether the appellant’s assertion of his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination is a defense to a charge of possession of an unregistered distillery under 26 U.S.C. 5601(a) (1). That question has heretofore been answered by this Circuit in the negative. 1
The motion is therefore granted 2 and the judgment of conviction is affirmed.
1. See Thornburg v. United States, 406 F.2d 1060 [Feb. 4, 1969] (distillery); Hall v. United States, 407 F.2d…
