   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  02-2694
                          and No:  02-2748
   Western District of Missouri   
Criminal case - criminal law. Warrantless search of a home was justified by officers' fears that other people were in the home and posed a threat to them; district court did not err in instructing the jury that, in order to convict defendants of conspiracy or attempt, it must find that the violation of the law involved the manufacture of 50 grams or more of a mixture and substance of methamphetamine; evidence was sufficient to support conviction for possession with intent to distribute as amount seized, while small, was divided into individual packages and the other evidence established defendant was dealing in drugs with a number of customers; no error in refusing to sever or in refusing to give proposed instruction dealing with the credibility of cooperating witnesses.
