MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Muschik, 995 F.2d 234 (9th Cir. 1993):

Although possibly prejudicial, the admission of this evidence was harmless error. United States v. Lui, 941 F.2d 844, 848 (9th Cir.1991). The remaining evidence overwhelmingly demonstrated Muschik's guilt.
