MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Fontenot, 14 F.3d 1364 (9th Cir. 1994):
Rulings on the admissibility of evidence are reviewed for abuse of discretion. United States v. Catabran, 836 F.2d 453, 456 (9th Cir.1988). Evidentiary errors do not require reversal unless they more probably than not tainted the verdict. United States v. Lee, 846 F.2d 531, 536 (9th Cir.1988).
