Is there sufficient evidence to support a conviction under 18 U.S.C. c. section 924(c) of the Criminal Code for possession of a handgun?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Baltazar, 122 F.3d 1074 (9th Cir. 1997):

1 Because there is sufficient evidence to support a conviction under the "carry" prong of 18 U.S.C. 924(c), there is no need to reach the "use" prong. See United States v. Lopez, 100 F.3d 98, 101 n. 5 (9th Cir.1996), cert. denied, 117 S.Ct. 1824 (1997).
