United States v. Timothy Yerkes

Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

Decided October 3, 2003No. 02-3916PublishedCited by 29 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

SMITH, Circuit Judge.

Timothy Yerkes was convicted of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine (violating 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1)) and with illegal possession of pseudoephedrine pills (violating 21 U.S.C. § 841(c)(2)). Yerkes raises three issues on appeal. He argues that his right to a speedy trial was violated, that he should receive a new trial based upon newly discovered evidence, and that he should not have been assessed an upward role adjustment when the district court 1 sentenced him. We find no error and affirm his sentence.
