The following excerpt is from McCarter v. Gunn, 34 F.3d 1072 (9th Cir. 1994):
The district court also dismissed appellant's claim that his due process rights were violated by the trial court's exclusion of evidence relating to appellant's brother's conviction for masturbating in public. No constitutional violation resulted from the trial court's exclusion of this evidence. See Tinsley v. Borg, 895 F.2d 520, 530 (9th Cir.1990), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 1091 (1991).
