Description

The appellant was convicted on the first three counts of a nine-count indictment, all charging the use of the mails to defraud except the last which charged a conspiracy to commit the crimes set forth in the first eight counts. He contends (1) that he was tried simultaneously on two separate and distinct schemes to defraud, (2) that the trial court imputed causation to the defendant in the use of the mails by other persons, (3) that irrelevant and prejudicial matter was admitted in evidence, and (4) that the motion for a new trial should not have been denied.
