MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from United States v. Salazar-Gaeta, 447 F.2d 468 (9th Cir. 1971):
Appellant next claims prejudice by the admission of the automobile registration slips found in his possession at the time of the border search. Although the government's reasons for introducing the additional registration slips are rather tenuous, the trial judge has wide discretion in deciding the question of relevancy. O'Brien v. United States, 411 F.2d 522 (5th Cir. 1969). Appellant's protestations of prejudices are merely speculative.
