UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee,
v.
George Harley PERKINS, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 72-1228 Summary Calendar.*

United States Court of Appeals,
Fifth Circuit.

June 6, 1972.

Before THORNBERRY, COLEMAN and INGRAHAM, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

The appellant, George Harley Perkins, was convicted by a jury of violating the statutes prohibiting the armed robbery of a bank, 18 U.S.C., Sec. 2113(a) (d) and 18 U.S.C., Sec. 924 (c) (2). He was sentenced to imprisonment for terms of fifteen years and three years, consecutively.

2

On appeal, Perkins complains of the identification furnished by the one bank employee present at the night-time robbery, of the order of proof, and of the admission in evidence of a letter signed by Perkins, written while he was in jail.

3

We detect no error which would warrant reversal and the conviction is affirmed under our Local Rule 21.1

4

Affirmed.
