MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Campen v. Greenamyer, 940 F.2d 1533 (9th Cir. 1991):

By way of limiting instruction, the judge read Federal Rule of Evidence 404(b) to the jury, and stated that "Exhibits 57 and 58 are admitted for limited purpose only." RT 5-19-89 at 57-58. We review the admission of evidence under Rule 404(b) for an abuse of discretion. United States v. Brown, 880 F.2d 1012, 1014 (9th Cir.1989).
