   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  02-2853
   Northern District of Iowa   
   Criminal Case - distribution of crack cocaine. District court did 
   not err in denying motion to dismiss the indictment because the 
   prosecutor misled the grand jury, as the error was not prejudicial. 
   Sufficient evidence was presented to support the jury verdict. 
   District court did not abuse its discretion in denying defendant's 
   motion for new counsel, as defendant had a full and fair 
   opportunity to present his concerns to the district court and the 
   court found no real conflict of interest. District court did not 
   abuse its discretion in admitting coconspirator's statements. 
   Calculation of drug quantity was not clear error.
