Description

MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge. Two defendants, Felisardo Casares-Cardenas (""Casares"") and Guillermo Osorio-Higuera (""Osorio""), appeal from convictions for violating federal drug-trafficking laws. Casares asserts that the district court1 erred in refusing to consider his untimely motions to suppress evidence, to dismiss charges, and to sever his case from Osorio's. Osorio claims that the search of a car performed two months after its seizure violated the Constitution, and that testimony concerning his entry into the United States with a person bearing the same name as his codefendant was improperly admitted. Both defendants also assert errors in their sentencing hearings. We find that the district court committed no error, and therefore affirm both convictions.
