   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-1638
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit
   Judges]
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in denying
   defendant's motion to sever the counts related to two separate assaults, as
   the offenses were similar in nature and close in proximity and time; claim
   of grand jury error rejected; evidence was sufficient to support conviction
   for manslaughter.
