   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  10-2457
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Sioux Falls   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Melloy and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in excluding
   evidence of the government's prior charging decisions as many factors
   unrelated to guilt may influence those decisions and their admission risks
   misleading the jury and confusing the issue; court did not err in limiting
   defendant's testimony regarding alibis for dates not included in the
   superseding indictment.
