   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  02-2307
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
Criminal case - Criminal law. Evidence was sufficient to support conviction for conspiracy and for aiding and assisting in the filing of false income tax returns; instruction cured any prejudice from admission of testimony about acts outside the period of the conspiracy alleged in the indictment; references to the evidence in the government's closing argument did not require a new trial; district court did not err in admitting evidence of prior civil adjudications arising out of defendant's past provision of tax services as it was relevant to his intent, knowledge and motive; indictment was not defective; district court did not err in imposing an upward enhancement based on its belief defendant's criminal history score did not adequately reflect the seriousness of his past conduct.
