Opinion
No. 72-1465.
July 17, 1972.
George Tamblyn, of Tamblyn, Bouneff, McLennan, Muller, Marshall Hawkes, Portland, Or., for defendant-appellant.
Sidney I. Lezak, U.S. Atty., Jack C. Wong, Asst. U.S. Atty., Portland, Or., for plaintiff-appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Oregon.
Before ELY, KILKENNY and CHOY, Circuit Judges.
Quigley was charged with and convicted of passing and selling counterfeit currency in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 472.
His attack upon the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the charge of "selling" is without merit. The government was not required to prove both passing and selling, even though the indictment so charged. Cf. Arellanes v. United States, 302 F.2d 603, 609 (CA9 1962), cert. denied 371 U.S. 930, 83 S.Ct. 294, 9 L.Ed.2d 238 (1962); United States v. Carter, 454 F.2d 525 (CA9 1972); McGriff v. United States, 408 F.2d 333, 334 (CA9 1969).
The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
