Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
E. GRADY JOLLY, Circuit Judge:
Alvin Wayne Heacoek, Jr. appeals his criminal convictions for various illegal gambling related offenses. He argues eleven points of error, but most have little merit. We therefore focus our attention on (A) Heacock’s sufficiency of the evidence challenge to his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 1955 — operation of an illegal gambling business — and (B) Heacock’s legal challenge to his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 1952— interstate travel in aid of racketeering. We hold that the judgment of conviction is error-free, and therefore affirm.
