071454P.pdf   05/21/2008  Rickey Jackson  v.  USA
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-1454
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - Cape Girardeau   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Riley and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. Evidence showed Jackson did not have an ownership interest in stereo/video equipment and clothing found in his girlfriend's vehicle at the time of his arrest, and the court did not err in granting judgment for the government on his claims for return of those items; however, Jackson was entitled to return of the custom wheels on the vehicle as the evidence showed he had purchased the wheels and had neither given them to his girlfriend nor abandoned his interest in them; because the rims have been lost or misplaced, the matter is remanded to permit Jackson to assert an alternative claim for monetary damages.
