413 F.2d 445

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. James Terrell KNIGHT, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 27001

Summary Calendar.

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit.

June 30, 1969.

Certiorari Denied Nov. 10, 1969.

See 90 S.Ct. 217.

Denmark Groover, Jr., Macon, Ga., for defendant-appellant.

Floyd M. Buford, U. S. Atty., D. Rampey, Asst. U. S. Atty., Macon, G. for plaintiff-appellee.

Before BELL, AINSWORTH and GODBOLD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

This is an appeal from a revocation of probation. From the facts disclosed by the record we find the appeal to be without merit.1 The revocation proceedings were brought following the conviction of appellant and another for a misdemeanor in connection with non-tax-paid distilled spirits.2 Revocation of probation is a matter of judicial discretion. Seymore v. Beto, 5 Cir., 1967, 383 F.2d 384. The only issue, therefore, is whether or not the trial court abused this discretion. Broadus v. United States, 5 Cir., 1963, 317 F.2d 212, 213. We find no such abuse.

Affirmed.
