OPINION OF THE COURT

SLOVITER, Circuit Judge.

Reuben Dowling, who was convicted by a jury of several offenses arising out of a bank robbery, appeals on various evidentia-ry grounds. Dowling contends that the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to suppress photo identifications, in refusing to allow testimony by Dowling’s expert witness on human perception, and in disallowing defense questioning of a witness concerning a civil suit arising out of the robbery, and that the court erred in admitting into evidence testimony concerning a crime for which Dowling previously had been acquitted.
